We congratulate Giorgi "George" Papashvili, PhD Candidate and graduate assistant at the Zimmerli Art Museum, for his work as editor of the recent publication of Niko Pirosmanashvili: A Study of His Life and Art by the Unicorn Publishing Group (UK) in 2024. The book was compiled by an artist, Tengiz Mirzashvili (1934-2008) and a graphic designer, Arkady Troyanker (1937-2025). It includes old and new contributions from art historical writers and others, as well as archival materials. Dedicated to one of the most celebrated self-taught artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, known popularly as Pirosmani, the volume comes with lavish illustrations and comprehensive coverage of the history and culture of the country of Georgia.
More information on the book can be found on the publisher's website linked here. Hard copies will be available also at the Art Library and the Museum.
