Karol Felix – Lighthouse
16 October 10:00 - 9 November 18:00
The Dimitri Shevardnadze National Gallery will host an exhibition by Karol Felix, titled Lighthouse.
The exhibition is held with the support of the Embassy of the Slovak Republic in Georgia.
Karol Felix was born on July 26, 1961, in Košice. He studied printmaking and book illustration at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava under the influential professor Albín Brunovský. Since graduating, he has worked as a freelance artist, moving freely between painting, drawing, printmaking, illustration, sculpture, design, installations, and even postage stamps.
Felix co-founded the G BOD graphic association and is an active member of major Slovak and international art unions. Over the years, he has held 86 solo exhibitions in 19 countries and taken part in more than 250 group shows across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa, and Australia.
His work has earned him numerous awards worldwide—from Slovakia and Poland to South Korea and the USA. Beyond creating, Felix has shared his vision as a guest lecturer in places as varied as Mexico, South Africa, China, and the UAE, and has curated over 30 exhibitions at home and abroad.
In Lighthouse, Felix continues his exploration of light, imagination, and the symbols that link our inner and outer worlds. His recent works invite us to move between myth and modern life, finding moments of insight where memory, dream, and creativity meet. Through his distinctive vision and craftsmanship, Felix inspires viewers to look beyond the surface and discover the deeper forces that shape how we see and feel.
The exhibition will open on October 16 at 10:00 a.m. and will be on view through November 9.
