Igor
Tcholaria
- the exhibition 'Nostalgie de la beauté' of the
latest paintings and sculpture by the artist.
The Georgian artist
Igor Tcholaria lived
and worked in Belgium for many years. He
collaborated with major galleries in Belgium,
Holland, England, Luxembourg, and the United
States of America. He participated in dozens of
general and personal exhibitions around the
world.
The work of the
Georgian artist is characterized by a
combination of an ultra-modern approach to
painting with a deep understanding of the
techniques and traditions of old European
masters. The motifs of the French avant-garde
and impressionist artists of the early twentieth
century are not alien to him.
Igor Tcholaria
attaches great importance to the preliminary
processing of the canvas. The pictorial layers
of the lining often represent independent works
of abstract painting in the spirit of Cezanne's
layers, Pollack's multi-vector tricks, and
Rothko's warm and mysterious halftones. Thanks
to this work, a kind of artist's know-how,
Tcholaria's canvases live, breathe and supply
the owner with positive energy, so necessary for
a human being in our turbulent and difficult
times.
True avant-garde is
archaic - Tcholaria claims. It is not for
nothing that Pablo Picasso turned to prehistoric
examples of cave paintings in search of forms.
Igor Tcholaria also
adheres to the glorious tradition. In his
improvisations, he masterfully maintains a high
note of inspiring nostalgia. No matter how
sophisticated the inventors of various concepts
are, painting is the result of an impressive
combination of forms and colours. Let us not
forget that having created a world of incredible
complexity, the Lord laconically limited himself
to two words of commentary.
IT IS GOOD - said
God.
