A group display of contemporary creatives next week will map six locations in districts of Georgia's capital Tbilisi, introducing visitors to the exhibition spots via a digital guide, and aiming for a synthesis of social and natural environments in the process.
Works by six artists comprise the series of multimedia shows entitled Sizmari (Georgian for 'dream'), scattered across locations in different parts of the city based on an outline of the shape of the Golden Spiral geometric form, placed on a map of Tbilisi.
Organisers have explained the project as being themed after "the harmony of the individual, society, and nature", with the natural and societal parts used separately before visitors of the displays "enliven the installations" through a use of technology, leading to a synergy between the two elements.
The places you’ve been to, the people you’ve met become one whole.You realize, that the way you followed, as the effects and signs you’ve witnessed, was created by yourself. All of them gathering at the end of this road, into a unique moment, coming true like a dream

Bringing together multi-disciplinary works by Levan Abramishvili, Dodo Chkheidze, Giorgi Koberidze, Vazha Marr, Levan Kutateladze and Lisa Romanovska, the display will host visitors at location-specific exhibitions that bear individual titles.
From the Artarea venue space near the Mtkvari River embankment, to a "sound portal" spot on the opposite river bank, and an area entitled as a mix of flora elements and technological waste, the full nature of the six locations is kept cryptic by the hosts.
However, organisers have released a series of multimedia posts on the Instagram channel for the series, introducing aural and visual impressions of the project.
The Sizmari display will host visitors between November 12-14.
An exploration of visions of future will bring this year's edition of River’s Magic Garden contemporary art festival to life starting this Friday, with works by 20 Georgian artists, discussions, screenings and audio performances comprising the event.
An online group display bringing together works by Georgian and foreign creatives is taking a look at questions of creative possibilities in changed global circumstances amid the pandemic.
As the physical art scenes remain in shutdown due to the new coronavirus outbreak, works by 30 Georgian creatives explore the "new reality" in a digital group show available in videogame form on the internet.
Questions of cultural reference in videogame form and multimedia will be explored by a group exhibition at Tbilisi Photography and Multimedia Museum starting this Thursday, with interactivity for viewers and series of meetings packaged as part of the display.
