Zhvitiashvili Nana
Nana Zhvitiashvili is a senior researcher at the Center for Musical Pedagogy at the State Russian Museum. She was born in St Petersburg to a family of doctors. She attended the studio of Natalya Koshelkova and Eugene Tykotsky. She has worked at the State Russian Museum for over ten years. She graduated from the Repin Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. She has taken training courses in many foreign museums (the USA, Germany, Holland, Austria), taken part in joint projects (the Russo-British project entitled “Exploring the Cultural Landscape: Images Uniting Mankind”; the Russo-German project entitled “The Avant-garde in Russia and Germany”, and many others. She considers her greatest merit to be the art-therapy program (“A Step Toward”) launched at the Russian Museum, which aims at providing opportunities for the creative adaptation and social rehabilitation of children of limited capabilities. This program triggered a series of other city projects designed as a practical model of ongoing creative workshops encompassing artists and psychologists, handicapped and healthy children. At present, the organization of “An Open Studio” is under way, which is a safe space for creative communication, where adults and children may leave their marks, search for traces, establish links and find their ways to one another.
