ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In Merab Gagiladze's refined and clear painting, his artistic education and knowledge of easel graphics could be clearly felt. He graduated from the Faculty of Graphics at the Art Academy. In the early period, he also worked in lithography, although his basic style and artistic thinking have not changed radically, only the expressive form has changed. It is characterized by a fast way of working. It works without a sketch and sketch. Overall knows the theme, mood and feeling. A firm hand, a precise and clear outline, symmetry and meticulously written details, sometimes leave the impression of colorful graphics. However, color is no less important in his works. When painting with oil paints, he has his own specific technique, he uses several thin layers of paint, like the old masters, using the lacing technique, he gets transparent tones. Gold and silver foil is often used in the works. It starts with a yellow color and after a few layers, the yellow tone seems to glow from within. Colors come with mood. The color often changes depending on the country, place and even season.

Merab was born on 13 March 1972 in Tbilisi, Georgia. Is married to Irma Kusiani (also an artist) and have two children. The artist avoids creating portrait faces of specific people. His characters are the product of the artist's imagination, his idealized types, generalized and allegorical, sometimes even seemingly genderless. It is difficult to assign them to any specific time and space. The heroes of Merab Gagiladze's works seem to have come from the past, but at the same time, they adapt to the modern world with eternal themes and values. It is determined by his artistic taste and clear priorities and, as it were, accumulated the influence of all previous eras and styles, on the contrary, he is happy to make his own interpretation and appropriation of these influences. Jan van Eyck, Lucas Cranach, Bosch, Rembrandt, Gustav Klimt, the works of the Pre-Raphaelites, Japanese, African or old Georgian art are the source of the artist's inspiration. A kind of eclectic mix in the details of his works create the artist's individual handwriting and elevated aesthetics, which is his main credo.
