‘101 Contemporary Artists’ Collect Art [Publication] Tbilisi, Georgia
The idea of Collect Art came to light at the end of December 2019, in order to support Georgian and international artists during the pandemic, however, the experience accumulated over the years and current processes pushed us to play more with Collect Art and give it different workloads.
On January 1, 2020, Collect Art was launched in the online space and we started to reach our goal. The online space allowed us to quickly reach the voice of the international artistic field. In the autumn of the same year, we started publishing magazines, and at the same time launching online exhibitions, the number of interested artists has already exceeded 500, from 96 countries of the world. In total, we have released 16 issues of seasonal magazines and special editions.
During 3 years, we were able to help several successful artists, such as Nata Buachidze, Salome Kobulashvili, Tamriko Melikishvili, George Chaushba, and many more, whose works were exhibited at the Paris Art Week, the Venice Biennale, the National Museum of Madrid and etc...
The purpose of Collect Art is to build a bridge between Georgian and international cultural events and artists, to give a chance others to think from a different perspective, and to make art even more accessible to those interested in the field of culture.
