27.09.19 10:00


Georgian artist Vakhtang Kokiashvili, a pioneer of vitrage art genre in the country, is among artists featured in this year's Vienna Contemporary art fair, visited by tens of thousands of viewers and open to public.

 

The late creative, known for his work in interior decoration as well as painting, will be introduced to those flocking to the Austrian capital through the latter, with exhibits in oil and watercolour picked to present his themes and technique at the fair.

 

Presented at the fairgrounds by the Window Project gallery, Kokiashvili's 1960s and 1970s artwork for the event brings his take on ethnic and abstract motifs.

 

Displaying his works at the Viennese fair brings to a wider audience the legacy of the artist who decorated popular public and private spaces in cities across Georgia, from an interior of the Tbilisi Funicular ropeway station to venues in Black Sea resort towns.
