Thea Djordjadze creates a new body of work, examining and challenging not only the formal and material qualities of the building, but also its institutional context. With these works, the Georgian-German artist continues to elaborate her eloquent vocabulary of sculptural paintings and painterly sculptures. S.M.A.K. organizes the first museum solo exhibition of Georgian artist Karlo Kacharava (1964 – 1994) outside Georgia. The exhibition extensively features Karlo Kacharava’s paintings, works on paper and illustrated diaries.

The exhibition at M HKA features a generous selection of drawings and paintings by Elene Chantladze, in dialogue with display and support structures conceived by Rooms Studio, at times hosting each other, at others remaining autonomous. The exhibition articulates and celebrates the common ground that comes alive through their work. Music by: Natia Todua – Magnolia
