Gathering and Window Project: 'Sports Illustrated'

3 May-18 May 2024

Overview

In Gallery One, Gathering and Window Project collaborate on ‘Sports Illustrated,’ a dual exhibition of Tamara K.E. and Gia Edzgveradze, both key figures in the emergence of Georgia's contemporary art scene. In an ironic parallel with the eponymous magazine, known for its celebration of athletic prowess and infamous annual swimsuit edition, ‘Sports Illustrated’ addresses the patterns of desire and power that underpin the world of sports. Fittingly, these dynamics are also essential to the maintenance of close relationships; K.E. and Edzgveradze are life partners. Positioning their work side by side, 'Sports Illustrated' prompts reflection on the competition and play within eros, ambition and interpersonal relationships.
