Guram Dolenjashvili

Guram Dolenjashvili (b. 1943, Kutaisi, Georgia) is a Georgian artist known for his meticulously detailed drawings and atmospheric monochromatic landscapes. Working primarily in drawing, he has spent more than five decades exploring the expressive possibilities of a pencil, and black and white compositions.
His artistic practice is characterized by an extraordinary dedication to detail. Some of his larger works are so intricate that a magnifying glass is needed to fully appreciate their finest elements, while certain compositions have taken more than four years to complete. Through countless subtle variations of tone, light, and shadow, Dolenjashvili creates landscapes that appear both remarkably precise and almost dreamlike.
A graduate of the Tbilisi State Academy of Fine Arts in 1968, Dolenjashvili has exhibited internationally throughout his career. His work has been presented at graphic-art biennials in Ljubljana, Kraków, Heidelberg, Varna, and Bhopal, alongside numerous solo exhibitions. In 1985, he received First Prize and a Silver Plaquette at the Graphic Art Biennial in Varna, Bulgaria.
His distinctions include the title of Honored Artist of Georgia and honorary membership in the Russian Academy of Arts. His official CV list...
