In a small room in Gelati, filled with somewhat nontraditional looking icons.

Let me guess 19th century icons with Russian court-style influence?Great picture and great setting. Geschrieben: vor 19 Monaten.
shioshvili sagt:
it seems that you know more about this stuff than I do. It does seem non-traditional, hence it probably Russian influence (or even Russian icon). This room had somewhat odd collection (depiction of hell at one wall, this in at the other). It is sad that it has to be this way and not either identified, or taken care of.

Biography and article about life and creativity of the great Georgian artist. Collection of paintings and a large photo-gallery with audio.



David Kakabadze's (1889-1952) creative life was a hard one even full of contradictions which were shown in his great desire to develop the national traditions and to raise them to the new quality on the one hand and in the desire to comprehend and master the "newest" trends in the West European art of the XX century on the other hand. These contradictions, that seem "irreconcilable" at first sight, reveal his solid character, his aim and his unique creative individuality. He used oil, pencil, water-colors, metal, glass and other technical means with a great mastership. The peculiarity of his talent is revealed in his every work, in every period of his creative life, in which he planned his beforehand. First his task was inwardly "mastered", seriously decided and then it was fulfilled in the generalized artistic forms. In this way he created landscapes, searching for the equivalent to the nature. This is the explanation to the facts that he generally made a series, groups of works, in which we see different variations of working out one and the same topic, and we see no "alternation" or the stages in search of a better decision. If we take separately each variation, from this series, we'll see that it is an artistically fulfilled piece of art.

"Comunists tried to burn this holy icon for 3 times, but it wouldn't burn. They got scared and left it alone. Now this icon slowly brings all descolored facial features back. Miracle!"
