Description
Information about institution: 

“Bouillon” group was founded in 2008 By Natalia Vatsadze, Teimuraz Kartlelishvili, Vladimer Khartishvili, Konstantine Kitiashvili, Ekaterina Ketsbaia, Zurab Kikvadze.
“Bouillon" group is the one of a few artists’ groups focusing on utilization of public non artistic spaces. The group is concentrated on e active confluence of a space, which is not concerned with art and artistic production or in contrary intervention with non artistic activity in artistic space. The group made several apartment projects underlining suitability of a private space for an artistic production and public art projects gently criticizing Georgian post-soviet reality. Having limited number of gallery spaces for contemporary art in Tbilisi, few Georgian artists present their works in alternative spaces in a better way promoting new models of relationship between the public space and artwork. The group also produces performances, actions and video installations. 
The ideas in the group are always generated through collaboration of the group members. All the six artists process the ideas as long as they decide that the work is finished. “Bouillon” try to eliminate the borders between art and life. As a result the line between these two fields of human activity gets blurred like their works.
