Nani Potskhverashvili

My name is Nani Potskhverashvili. I'm an artist from Georgia, I run my own gallery and workshop in Tbilisi.
I'm an artist with academical painting background, using several mixed techniques. One of them can be bravely called my invention " Second Life" - Nature that is going to die in several days, weeks, I'm giving chance on Second Life, and probably gifting them immortality. I'm creating paintings of various themes: portrait, still life, abstract, landscape with natural flowers and leaves. Using about 200 of verities of plants from around the world. I'm traveling a lot selecting and making herbariums beforehand. My technique saves their colors and structures for a long years, oldest one I own is 17 years old, still as colorful as newly finished. Making works with this technique takes much more time and effort than my works made of oil, acrylic or other materials.

I've graduated Tbilisi State University( 2004-2008). Bachelor degree in Fine Arts. I have additional educations in psychology and Tourism.

My exhibition list starts from the period of University.All my 5 personal exhibitions have been made in Georgian art galleries ( Baia Gallery, Gallery Vernissage, Nani gallery..)
I was participant of group exhibitions in various countries and galleries ( Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Turkey...)
