Artist Tengiz Shamov was born on December 12, 1978.
Graduated from art school number 3 and art school of the city of Krasnodar.
“Tengiz is a realist artist, such as he can be in 2019. Art critics call him a "context photographer". Context is something that is extremely difficult to grasp, much less to depict (Latin contextus - connection). To paint a picture relying on the context means adhering to the narrative level of abstraction set by the artist. " - art and graphics collector Artur Grigoryan.
