Merab Abramishvili was a Georgian painter whose works were influenced by medieval arts and European neo-expressionism.
His paintings show a unique mixture of oriental miniatures and Georgian frescoes. Despite these "influences", the artist introduced us a clearly different spoken language and style of Georgian painting. The world that the artist conveys to us seems unreal and at the same time it is remarkably earthly.

Florine Stettheimer’s dreamy, theatrical paintings range from surrealistic, symbol-laden scenes to diaristic portrayals of upper-crust lifestyles in the interwar era. Stettheimer is also credited as one of the first women to ever paint a full-scale nude self-portrait; her subversive feminist spirit infuses much of her work.

“Painting, like music, has nothing to do with the reproduction of nature, nor interpretation of intellectual meanings. Whoever is able to feel the beauty of colors and forms has understood nonobjective painting.”

By Pentti Sammallahti
Pentti Sammallahti, one of Finland’s most recognized artists, is more than a photographer: he is a craftsman, a poet, a traveler, and a master-observer. For over 50 years he has captured the mysteries of nature, in all of its forms across the world, in exquisite imagery in which nature and artifice, reality and fantasy, become indisputably intertwined.
*
Inspired by the title of a poem by the Finnish writer Aaro Hellaakoski, Me Kaksi (which translates to "us two" in English) celebrates the fortuitous encounter, the strange closeness, the presence in the world of two beings.

Excerpt from the movie Edvard Munch, 1974.
“- He is standing amidst
blood red flowers - in the
deep blue clouds of evening –
He does not understand exactly
what is going on -
But even when she has disappeared
over the sea he feels how a few
fine threads of her hair
are still fast in his
heart - it bleeds - and burns
like an everlasting open sore.”
From - The private Journals of Edvard Munch: We are flames which pour out of earth.
