Ekaterine Gelovani Exhibition
11 April 18:00 - 15 June 18:00
Ekaterine Gelovani graduated from the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts in 1983. Shortly after, in 1987, she held a solo exhibition at the Tbilisi Ethnographic Museum. She has participated in numerous group exhibitions both in Georgia and abroad. Her works are housed in the National Bank of Georgia, as well as in private collections in Cologne and Moscow. The artist also took part in a competition organized under the auspices of the UN’s World Food Programme, where she was awarded second prize.
Ekaterine Gelovani’s paintings are emotionally expressive, yet simultaneously simple, concise, and precise. As the artist herself states, her work is a personal exploration of the boundless possibilities of color, form, and line.
A special place in her artistic practice is dedicated to portraiture. Her series of self-portraits, which she titled Dialogue, comes with her own reflection:
Dialogue with oneself is a complex and perilous journey—a process of losing and finding, of facing the questions we try to avoid, yet which inevitably return in different forms, faces, and bodies.
This is the artist’s first exhibition at the National Gallery. The exhibition will feature around 20 works created over different periods of her career.
From April 11 to June 15, 2025, the Dimitri Shevardnadze National Gallery will present a solo exhibition of artist Ekaterine Gelovani.
Exhibition opening – April 11, 6:00 PM.
