Georgian artists of the 80s and 90s in the National Museum

A wonderful well curated show by Irina Popiashvili on display till November 22 in the State Blue Gallery of the National Museum (next to Kashveti church) showing the today famous group of artists working loosely together at Marjanishvili Theater in the End of the 80s.

A highly recommended show, that should go directly into a future Georgian Museum of Contemporary Art. 


Perfectly fits the photography of Guram Tsibakhashvili, who documented the Art scene in these years of the break down of the Soviet Union in Georgia.
