VIMA Art Fair 2026 @vima.artfair
For the VIMA Art Fair we are pleased to present three contemporary artists working across distinct media: Uta Bekaia (ceramics), Aleksey Dubinsky (painting), and Ani Toidze (works on paper). Each artist is represented through a single medium, enabling a focused investigation of materiality and perception.
Across the presentation, white surfaces - glazed ceramic, primed canvas, and paper - function as a unifying conceptual ground, activated by subtle interventions of color, mark, and form that articulate the transformative trajectories of human experience.

at VIMA Art Fair 2026
Uta Bekaia (b. 1974) is an artist whose practice reimagines ancestral rituals through the lens of a queer utopian future. Working across wearable sculpture, ceramics, textiles, and performance, he constructs immersive environments shaped by craft, symbolism, and collective presence.
Drawing from traditional techniques and cultural references, his works transform into living forms ā activated through movement, film, and staged encounters.

We are pleased to be participating in ARCOmadrid @feriaarco 2026 this week, featuring works by Uta Bekaia and Rusudan Khizanishvili.
Booth: 9OP05
The presentation brings together the artistsā personal mythologies with close observations of human behaviour and the natural world, approaching narrative as a form of ecological knowledge. Across painting, drawing, tapestry, sculpture, and ceramic bas-reliefs, the works reflect on what endures over time, gestures, rituals, and symbolic forms that register human action, environmental cycles, and the rhythms that shape lived experience.

šļø On view till January 20th, 2026
š E.Tatishvili st.9, Tbilisi, Georgia
āā¦Akhobadzeās ongoing movement across media and scale constitutes an expanded inquiry into the ontology of abstraction. Her practice aligns with Griselda Pollockās feminist re-examination of abstract art in Abstraction and Difference (1988) and is further illuminated by Pollockās later assertion that the artistās bodily engagement in the work of painting marks āa site of psychosomatic subjectivity rather than anatomyā (Killing Men & Dying Women, 2022). In Akhobadzeās paintings, the surface becomes a repository of memory, intention, hesitation, and affective charge, an index of the temporal condition of making and of the reciprocal, almost corporeal, dialogue between artist and material.
Positioned within a field long canonised through masculinised frameworks, Akhobadzeās practice asserts an alternative genealogy of abstraction, one that foregrounds plurality and embodied difference. Her work demonstrates that abstraction remains a vital, generative space in which divergent subjectivities and material imaginaries may coexist, unsettle, and expand the discourse of contemporary paintingā¦ā - Lela Grigalashvili

Sacrificial Rites l Rusudan Khizanishvili, Chucho Reyes
šļø November 2025 - January 2026
š @camgaleria , Aristoteles 354, Polanco, Granada, CP. 11550, Mexico City, Mexico
āDual presentation of the accomplished Georgian artist Rusudan Khizanishvili and well-known Mexican artist Chucho Reyes opens up a unique avenue for intercultural discourse between Georgia and Mexico. Khizanishvili represents the post-Communist generation of Georgian female painters, sharing their difficult path of overcoming generational, hierarchically gendered, and post-colonial trauma while finding presence among the contemporary art landscape.
JesuĢs Reyes Ferreira, (1880-1977), known as Chucho Reyes, was a self-taught artist, art collector, and stage set designer who, for many decades, stands out in the art history of Mexico for his idiosyncratic language nourished with folk traditions, juxtapositions, and forms. In their own way, both artists are grounded in their sources, geohistorical characteristics, and concerns, but neither one of them is just a passive observer.
Both Khizanishvili and Reyes exemplify their national visual traditions while staying far away from cliches or banal appropriations of the common symbols. This exhibition looks at what themes also unite them, one of them being the concept of a sacrifice, either in a literal or a metaphoric way.Conceptual keys to this visually enriching exhibition full of hidden allusions could be found in diverse sources, including Human Sadness, a 1984 Georgian post-modernist novel by Goderdzi Chokheli, Violence and The Sacred, a 1972 treatise by French poststructuralist ReneĢ Girard, as well as the concept of horizontal art history first introduced by the Polish art historian Piotr Piotrowski in 2009. Theory of horizontal art history is important here as it brings the visual traditions separated by oceans and mountains into a one communicative and chronological device where artists use individualism to overcome the anxiety of influence artificially created by postcolonial subjugation to the western traditions. The exhibition on view is an example of this approach to art history.ā - Nina Chkareuli
