Alexander Varvaridze
Biography
Alexander Varvaridze is a visual artist best known for his paintings. He uses a very distinctive approach in his work consisting of figurative shapes and colors. His portraits show him as an emotional painter rather than a realist, which gives him a lot of room for interpretation. Alexander’s abstract work mobilizes the tensions and harmonies between matte surfaces, natural patterns, and textures built with layered surfaces of oil paint and additional mediums.
“When an artist is planning to create a new artwork, it first appears in the sphere of thought-form and subsequently manifests at the material level. Thoughts are material, as are other things in our world, but they vibrate on a higher level of frequency than our eyes are able to see at this period of our existence.”
Alexander’s work could be seen in numerous group and solo shows both nationally and abroad.
