At times, silence means much more than words, and there is much more mood, warmth and emotion in black and white than in a whole palette of bright colors. Georgian artist Guram Dolenjashvili fully felt and understood this truth. That is why his paintings are exclusively black and white masterpieces dedicated to peace and quiet, as well as the beauty that we will see if we look around and open our eyes wider. The moon and clouds, flowers and trees, fields and groves, beautiful people at work and on vacation - and this is not a complete list of plots that Guram Dolendzhashvili immortalizes on plain white paper with an ordinary simple pencil. The artist has his own, special understanding of beauty, and it is associated with silence and laconicism, severity and black and white colors. And no one can doubt this by looking at the work of the maestro. It would seem that there is nothing simpler and simpler than a simple pencil. But as soon as he falls into the hands of a master, he will show what he is capable of. Paints and brushes will never dream of this …
From a distance, Guram Dolendzhashvili's pencil paintings look like black and white photographs. But it is worth coming closer and looking at how this illusion dissipates, but this does not make the works lose their attractiveness and will continue to enchant the viewer with the unique tenderness of the plots in half with the seriousness and severity of execution. Probably, this is how people react to the sudden smile that illuminates the face of a stern warrior when he looks at his beloved woman or adored child. A bright, pure feeling, saturated with sun and summer rain. Even if the pictures show a deep winter.
By the way, a solid segment of the author's career is devoted to the Russian winter. Also, a lot of Guram's works are "in the clouds", illuminated by the sun or moon, rain down, and all this can be seen on his website. And even more than you expect.
