Catalogue Note

Dmitry Gordeev (1889-1968) was an artist and art historian, as well as an archaeologist and historian, specialising in medieval Georgian art. Based in Tiflis, Gordeev became close to the literary and artistic elite of the city, eventually becoming involved in, and chronicling the activities of, the Futurist collective 41 Degrees. It was here that he befriended the artist Kirill Zdanevich, the two artists going on to collaborate together on a number of publications produced by 41 Degrees.
