GLIMPSE IN GALLERY - ADAM AND HUMANS

#Glimpseingallery - Tamuna Melikishvili’s exhibition - “ADAM AND HUMANS”. Adam means red earth in Hebrew. In the Georgian language, ‘Adam’ became a part of the word human – ‘Adamiani’. It’s as if we too have to walk through this endless, red clay-paved road, accompanied by our own mistakes, love or lack of love, sins and regrets. Cast out like Adam on earth, we look for red apple trees to taste the sweet-sour taste. In this exposition, there was only one portrait of the person - Samuel Beckett as a symbol of comforting nihilism. Tamuna Melikishvili is a Georgian artist. In 1989, she graduated from the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts with a degree in the Faculty of Art History and Theory. Since the 1990s, she’s been working as a movie and video art director and has designed and illustrated the books of contemporary Georgian writers. Her primary medium is oil paint – oil on canvas, hand-made rice paper, and cardboard. Since the year 2000, she has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in Georgia and abroad and has participated in the Beijing Biennale, Tbilisi, and Yerevan art fairs. Her works are part of private collections worldwide. Host of the exhibition: Vernissage Gallery
