Works by Vakho Bugadze
Vakho Bugadze is a Georgian artist born in 1964 who lives and works in Tbilisi, Georgia. Vakho studied at the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts from 1982 to 1991.He is extremely famous in Georgia and abroad. Through improvisation and the use of specific material, as well as through creating an intense sensation of arbitrariness, irrationality and playfulness, the artist achieves an outcome at which he himself seems to be surprised and which seems to evolve spontaneously before the viewers’ eyes. The ambivalence and the positioning of figures on the borderline between the real and the abstract further intensifies the expressiveness and the background emotional strain. Known for his work in painting, drawing and sculpture, Bugadze has painted iconic local locations including the old Tbilisi districts and the former hippodrome of the city.
