Yuri Mechitov was born on May, 10, 1950 in Tbilisi, Georgia. He began to shoot photographs when he was 8 years old. But started to think about photography seriously much later. His first exhibition was displayed in 1979 in Tbilisi. Yuri started to work mainly in the documentary genre, now the artist thinks he likes to shoot people, as he mentions:  “I was happy to get into the art-world. It happened occasionally, but I believe that it was as it should be. My guides were three very different persons -an artist Mark Polyakov, who lives and works in NYC now, film-director Sergey Parajanov, who rests in peace in Yerevan, Armenia and Vladimir Pichkhadze, alas also buried in Tbilisi. They made all their best for me, for I could understand, evaluate and then to create art myself.” Yuri Mechitov held up to 20 solo and up to 50 group exhibitions in Georgia and other countries.
