Georgian cloisonné (enamel) art has a long-standing tradition. The high artistic level of the monuments created in the middle ages attests to the refined creative techniques of the artists in those times. During the centuries that followed, these techniques have been lost and, correspondingly, pieces of cloisonné art have no longer been created.

Davit Kakabadze (1889-1952)  - a Georgian painter, graphic artist and scenic designer, also an art scholar and innovator, was born in 1889, in a poor peasant family in the village of Kukhi, Imereti. His paintings appeared in the Georgian media as early as in his school years. He studied natural sciences at the physico-mathematical faculty of St. Petersburg University, from which he graduated in 1916.

Sergei Parajanov was fond of making up and narrating strange yarns. You would hardly tell the difference between the truth and the lie in his stories. All because his truth was very much like an unbelievable lie; as for his lie... it could easily prove to be true. Sergei Parajanov had an incredible life...

That's exactly how he used to make films.
