Sobre o livro
At the helm of this extraordinary ensemble is the legendary Nina Ananiashvili, one of the world’s most celebrated ballerinas and the artistic director of the National Ballet of Georgia. Under her visionary guidance, these dancers bring the elegance and precision of ballet to life, carrying forward a legacy of excellence rooted in Georgia’s deep cultural and artistic heritage.
From intimate moments of quiet reflection to breathtaking displays of motion, Beradis reveals the dedication and resilience of the dancers who have trained under Ananiashvili’s expert tutelage. This collection not only celebrates the beauty of ballet but also pays tribute to the rich traditions of Georgian ballet, which has been shaped by both classical techniques and the unique cultural spirit of Georgia.

Sobre o autor
I am Mamuka Kikalishvili, a Georgian fashion photographer born on November 15, 1971, in Tbilisi. Raised by schoolteacher parents, I developed a passion for photography at 11 when I bought a Smena film camera. I pursued electrical engineering, earning a PhD, and later established a successful business career. At 35, I rekindled my love for photography, founding Kikala Studio in Tbilisi in 2006, which became the leading studio in the Caucasus. My work has been featured in L'Officiel (Az), Harper's Bazaar (Ru), Boutique (Az), and Nargis (Az), and I have photographed celebrities like Milla Jovovich and Nina Ananiashvili. Balancing my business and photography, I travelled extensively, capturing diverse cultures and the human spirit. Despite a busy professional life, my passion for photography remains a core part of who I am, inspiring others through my lens.
