Adgur Dzidzaria and Alexey Shervashidze-Chachba both belong to the so-called Sukhum group, which was formed in 1970s as an alternative to the official art of the USSR. In contrast to their Moscow and St Petersburg colleagues, who mostly thought of themselves as the followers of avant-garde of 1910 -- 20s, the artists of Sukhum underground had developed under the influence of the Western art: Picasso, Modigliani, Braque, Delaunay, Miro, Derain, Rauschenberg and many more. These reflections, along with the local cultural traditions which had been rooting back to the Greek and Roman antiquity and Byzantium, shaped this esthetic refined style of the artists of Sukhum School.

Their creative and spiritual search lays in the framework of the inner laws of art development described by Vasily Kandinsky in his "Spiritual in Art". Each of these artists has his specific niche in the contemporary art.
