Sergo Tbileli (Georgian, b. 1958) is a prolific contemporary artist whose career began in the early 1970s in Soviet Georgia, while he was still a student at the Tbilisi State Academy of Arts. During his studies he worked on monumental murals and sculptures across the Soviet Union, absorbing diverse styles on journeys throughout Eurasia and financing his early creative work through state commissions.
