For the first time in twenty years, the iconic yet reclusive Georgian artist Levan Lagidze appears on the London art scene with an exhibition of twenty-five new paintings at La Galleria Pall Mall curated by Katrine Levin.
Lagidze is known for his highly structured abstract painting, philosophical approach to art and his dedication to Georgian art and artists. He is sought-after in the international art world, where his paintings have recently fetched high sums at auction. The Georgian Museum of Fine Arts in Tiblisi opened a new gallery this autumn with a hall dedicated to Lagidze. His paintings also hang in leading galleries across the former USSR including the Tretyakov in Moscow.
“The exhibition title reflects the ‘cadence’ of the paintings, where the myriad of tiny universes built up along a grid intermingle in a symphony of rich chromatic notes, creating universal images and narrations through abstraction.” Katrine Levin
