"The surreal paintings of Ramaz Razmadze are thought-provoking portals into the visionary world of his imagination. Depending on the viewer, his art may be described as enlightening or frightening, ridiculous or sublime. Razmadze creates surreal paintings while maintaining a realistic manner of painting. His art technique reflects the mysterious world of surreal compositions, characters and situations, while his realistic manner of painting makes "unreal" compositions and objects seem "real." Viewers often wonder if the artist is subconsciously depicting himself in his paintings. He works in a variety of mediums including oil, gouache, watercolor and ink. Born in Tbilisi, Georgia, he was educated at the Georgia State Technical University, attended the Academy of Fine Arts at Tbilisi, and is a member of the Artist's Union of Georgia. He studied drawing and oil painting at the studio of well-known Georgian artist Makhare Janelidze and worked as Janelidze's assistant. He has had both solo and group exhibitions in Georgia and the United Kingdom. He has a current trade exhibition at the Monkey House Studio in Toronto, Canada (through 2007) and has been approved to participate in the 2003 Florence Biennial in Italy."

2. Work appraisal by Angela Di Bello, Director, AGORA GALLERY, SOHO, NEW YORK

"The paintings delight in self-expression.  There exists a cadence of color, energy, and a spontaneous exuberance for the medium that is captivating and visually exciting.  The surrealist, organic and instinctive shapes, fluid and visceral in presentation, reveal a heightened understanding of structure and composition to express emotional appeal. Wonderful work."
