Beschrijving

Bol Black light: a concise introduction to the beloved modernist and fabled painter Georgia’s most famous artist, Niko Pirosmani (1862–1918) is a fabled figure in the story of early modernism. The painter, self-taught and penniless during his lifetime, was heralded posthumously for his "naive" style. Pirosmani’s paintings are simple—blunt, colorful depictions of rustic scenes gleaming against black canvas backgrounds, extraordinary icons of glowing intensity. This exhibition catalog showcases around 50 rarely seen Pirosmani masterpieces alongside a historical text on the artist written in 1926 by Kirill Zdanevich (who "discovered" Pirosmani); a fictional (but historically accurate) essay discussing Tbilisi as the Paris of Pirosmani’s age by the Danish art historian and writer, Kaspar Thormod; an interview with the Georgian art historian Nana Kipiani and her artist husband Levan Chogoshvili by Swiss curator Daniel Baumann; and reflections on the artist by contemporary artists Thea Djordjadze, Mamma Andersson and Tal R.
