Elementary Art education in the Hood. School. M. Toidze
(teachers - I. Kandashvili, M. Kipiani, D. Urushadze, K. Chumburidze),
from 1957 continued his studies at the Tbilisi State. hudlzh. Academy
of specialty ceramics, where his teachers were J. Tsitsishvili, S.
Kobuladze, S. Shebuev, S. Mikatadze, D. Tsereteli. For his thesis -
decorative monumental composition "Spring" (headed by R. Iashvili) drew
to your attention. The choice of degree subjects was dictated by time.
In the first work of Georgian ceramics (30-40 years) was laid
decorative monumental foundation that its broad development and
practical application is just a 50-ies. In his early years and his
creative credo - a solid, an organic unity with the native culture -
more specifically with the folk art and also the ability to be
consistent with the requirements of the time.
The proposed exhibition - the first exhibition of the artist
(until then he has participated in 27 trade fairs, half of which are in
union and foreign).
Different as in the material, and on characteristics (T.
Gobejishvili except ceramics gladly work on textiles, glass and wood
carvings) work shows that an artist for 20 years has remained true to
one chosen path. It would not have differed on the nature of work -
whether it be utilitarian things, or underlined fine, "a purely
exhibition" works for them in the same faith, there is the living
force, which the author draws from the depths of popular culture.
By this is not surprising that interested him the simple,
ancient purely "professional" appliances Jewelry vessel "tsernaki" (a
solution of iron oxide), which promises to lead to an interesting and a
new chapter of contemporary ceramics. In today's aggressive onslaught
of new forms and materials - is warm and calm from the meeting with
such artless ceramics. In this technique, they created a number of
works: "The service for lobio", "churn", jugs, etc. They are far from
imitation folk designs and completely original.
Also, original works of fine sculpture. Intricate, full of folk
yumooa vessels for drinking wine. Georgia is rich in ceramics difficult
structural forms, but the artist retains full authorial autonomy.
A great place to work T. Gobejishvili is decorative and
monumental works. In "Spring," set in the factory Krtsanisi (1963) in
1967 in Tbilisi, artistically decorated salon "Pirimze" In 1968, in
front of the plant Rutavi Tsentrolit, in Chiatura department and the
city of Anapa Children's Services. In 1972, in Tbilisi Swimming Pool
proftehobrozovaniya in 1981 in the town of Gori ¹ 115 college pool and
fountain, in Sighnaghi central pool. The work performed in fireclay,
smalt, are thematic, decorative panels as well as relief compositions.
All this suggests that T. Gobejishvili firmly taken its place among the
artists working in contemporary monumental art.
T. Gobejishvili with love and hunting combines creative work
with teaching. He teaches courses in 1969 ceramics in college, a
graduate of which is himself. At various times he was awarded medals
VDNH (one silver, five bronze) medal is the inventor. Since 1969 member
of the Artists Union of Georgia.
Loving, chtyaschim, to understand your own art, versatile,
interested, distinctive and contemporary artist appeared before us T.
Gobejishvili whose work promises to have a lot of interesting
discoveries.
