Dimitri Antadze (b.1963) graduated from the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts in 1888. During the difficult times of the 1990s in Georgia, fate brought the young artist to Japan. A fortunate coincidence proved fruitful on the path to broadening professional experience. In Japan, the work of Dima Antadze took on a new life, where he had nine solo exhibitions. A fairy tale is the main theme in Dima Antadze’s artistic world. The fairy tale itself, according to the artist, is a miracle, first and primarily for its origin, comprehensiveness… and, most importantly, because it gives a person freedom of perception. “Painting gives me an unusual feeling. It’s a parallel world to real life, where the artist uses space, colour, and line to discover or express himself“- Dimitri Antadze.
