Descriptions

Exhibition of Georgian video art

E. Mikeadze National Music Center (Former Railway Culture House)
01.03.2014 – 14.03.2014 

By „descriptions“ we often mean to refer to objective, plain truths. Georgian video art, which has widely developed in the undercurrent before establishing itself as a separate medium, offers us various descriptions – but from a very subjective and alternative point of view. Since the 80s, Georgian art has undergone an evolution, which ran parallel to the predominant, hegemonic discourse of the socio-cultural reality. Although a comprehensive contextualization might only be possible from a retrospective, the exhibition aimed to compile and illustrate 23 years of Georgian video art – exemplified by the artworks from 21 artists.
