The works of 30 year-old Georgian painter, descendant of The Balanchivadzes, have been exhibited in France. The painter should be grateful to Georgian wine together with the talent for such success. He has been waiting for this chance for 4 years. He even had no hope, but unexpectedly he was called and told – “Come”. 4 years ago he asked the gallery of Kristin Kolas in Paris to exhibit his works, but his turn came only now. Teliani Valley took the sponsorship under its responsibility and in May 6 the exhibition was opened. At 6 o’clock in the evening lots of people were gathered in the core of Paris, most of them were Georgians. But before the exhibition had started Anton was very nervous, he was afraid that no one would come. With the works of Balanchine, the Georgian and foreign visitors were equally attracted. Some said, that his paintings were like those fluffy toys, with which the artist probably used to play in his room in his childhood. The painter himself says that his personality is seen best in his paintings. When he saw Van Gogh and Picasso, he was once more assured, that during the painting one must not be afraid of anything, because from his viewpoint it is not possible to catch up or do more than Van Gogh did. During the painting he finds himself under his own influence, exactly at that very time Anton always recollects the words of Salvador Dali – “Never be afraid of perfection, because you will never reach it.” The young painter considers the graphical side to be intellectual initial, the color as spiritual one, that’s why he is interested in color in the first place. Even if the painting is technically unfinished, if he considers that colors pass that very thing that is to be said, than he will not touch it. It is the fourth personal exhibition for Anton, the painter as well as his works will stay for 1 month in Paris.
