George Ianaki (Georgi) is an accomplished artist with an impressive educational background, holding both a BFA in painting and drawing from the Kazanlack School of Arts and Design and a MA in traditional classical paining from the National Academy of Fine Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria, European Union.
Being taught in academic figure and portrait painting, Georgi shifted to abstract art after graduation. After years of modern abstract paintings, he returned to realism and figurative scenes inspired by Neo-classicism, mythology, and historical events.
Georgi's paintings combine the bestial and the divine, transporting one's subconscious into reality. They imply situations, events, or relationships that are suggestive and not directly expressed. This imbues them with an engaging sense of mystery.
