It’s not accidental that Giorgi Aleksidze’s Foundation for the Development of Contemporary Choreography together with Giorgi Aleksidze Tbilisi Contemporary Ballet responded to the world celebration of the 700th anniversary of the greatest Italian poet and philosopher, Dante Alighieri. The work of Dante Alighieri covers an era of Western European development and also opens a new page of the history of mankind, which is called the Renaissance.

When Tbilisi Contemporary Ballet finished their performance, the audience was left with something they could remember - intelligence shown through a concept and an idea that was spontaneously abundant.

The range of Tbilisi’s Contemporary Choreography gives some indication of erudition, especially when showcasing Mariam Aleksidze as the Chairman and artistic director.
Mariam Aleksidze
One thing Mariam Aleksidze did not care to be was original. She was prepared for this from the earliest years. In 1986, when film director SergoParajanov cast the young dancer Mariam in his film ‘Ashik-Kerib’, Giorgi Aleksidze (her father) was the choreographer. She was still a pupil at school when she participated in the joint projects of the Zakaria Paliashvili State Opera and Ballet Theatre ballet company and The Three Caravels production company from Monte Carlo.
After completing her studies at the Vakhtang Chabukiani Tbilisi Ballet Art State School, in 1994 she was awarded a Prima Ballerina Natalia Makarova Scholarship to continue her education at the Swiss Ballet-Berufschule (SBBS) in Zurich. After graduating, she received an engagement at the Zurich Opera and Ballet Theatre – Opernhaus Zürich (Switzerland) under the supervision of choreographer Heinz Spoerli. In 1999-2011, Mariam Aleksidze was a soloist at the Zakaria Paliashvili State Opera and Ballet Theatre. She performed solo and lead parts in the classical, neo-classical and contemporary ballets of the company’s repertoire.
