DISCOVERY OF UNKNOWN PAGES OF THE GEORGIAN CONTEMPORARY ART

Dusuna
Works of Rusudan Kevanishvili (born in 1957) is an outstanding example of Georgian Contemporary Art almost unknown in Russian public.

Pictures of Rusudan Kenanishvilia, also known as Dusuna, are marked by rich figurative language, picturesqueness and outstanding temperament. The basis of the artist's handwriting is the harmonious combination of professionalism and free interpretation of the motives of folk art and artistic currents of the 1920's. These are sources of subjects, images and some compositional elements. Together with the individual artistic achievements, amazingly sincere perception of reality and special author's technique, these features allow us to estimate Rusudan Kenanishvili as a bright creative figure.

The most elementary basis of cinematograph

Cinematograph had not gone through foundation stage and had not domesticated all the means of artistic expressiveness yet when the vanguard art was in blossom. Till today the heritage of suprematism was not grasped on the field of cinema. And now when cinematograph is formed and studied it becomes possible to transfer the principles of suprematism to this kind of art. So this theoretical work is intended to fill this gap. The very father of suprematism K. Malevich dreamed to shoot a suprematic film but unfortunately his plans were not realized and did not reach us. With the help of theory we can make this vanguard experiment, taking into account the suprematism concept and specific features of cinematograph.

The birth of suprematism is one of the most significant occasions in history of vanguard art. “The black square” captured minds of its contemporaries and continues to charm us till this moment by its unrepeatable categorical reticence, but one can hardly find anything more eloquent. It is studied by numerous arts critics and historians of art that the importance of this masterpiece can not be overestimated. That, at the first look, simplest performance was prepared by hard work of the painter. Malevich went through the phases of vanguard movement from impressionism to cubism and finally came to the absolutized principles of pure art, he came to abstruse realism.
