LC Queisser Gallery Is Bringing Georgian Art to the World

Standing at the entry of her Tbilisi-based gallery, LC Queisser, dealer Lisa Offermann noted that the differing heights of the building’s door frames pointed to Georgia’s palimpsestic past as an independent republic. Georgia once belonged to the Russian Empire and more recently was annexed by the Soviet Union. Until three years ago, Offermann and her husband, Nika Lelashvili, had lived in the back section of LC Queisser, behind a curtain; that room is now an additional gallery space.
