He worked together with the Futurist poet Kara-Darvish, modernist painters David Kakabadze, Elene Akhvlediani, Lado Gudiashvili, as well as&nbsp; Blue-horn-order poets -Titsian Tabidze and Paolo Iashvili. At that time he was prolific in graphic design and illustrations collaborating with many journals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;In 1917 he returned to Tbilisi from Petersburg&nbsp; and started teaching &nbsp;at the workshop of Mose Toidze (1911-29), and&nbsp; the Tbilisi Academy of Arts.<\/p>\n<p>The main area of his art is painting, created by impulsive, dynamic brush-strokes that reveal the style of a sophisticated colorist. His motifs and characters &#8211; acrobats, circus performers and nudes &#8211; reflect the physical fitness and bodily perfection&nbsp; of the material world. The artists was influenced by &nbsp;&nbsp;the outstanding colorists of the 18th-19th centuries, French romantic artists and impressionists.&nbsp; Alexander Bazhbeuk-Melikyan was extremely modest; He rarely took part in exhibitions; In 1936, he was accused of formalism and refusal to paint a portrait of Stalin and was consequently expelled from the Union of Artists. Although he was reinstated as a member in 1938, he had&nbsp; already sought to&nbsp; stay apart from public life. He&nbsp; was man of principle: once he destroyed his paintings because they&nbsp; were praised by a person&nbsp; unacceptable to him. He even burned his works &nbsp;when he couldn&#8217;t find a proper place to store them. &nbsp;All the time he&nbsp; kept only 111 pictures.<\/p>\n<p>He died in 1966 in Tbilisi.<\/p>\n<p>Sources:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.modernism.ge\" style=\"font-size: 15px; background-color: rgb(247, 246, 236);\">www.modernism.ge<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a
