Art object "Apple of Love", sculptor Zurab Tsereteli
- Description
The Apple of Love art object in Tbilisi, created by the famous Georgian sculptor Zurab Tsereteli, is an impressive 9-meter high structure located on Rustaveli Avenue, behind the MoMa gallery. This is the original rotunda, decorated with 145 sculptures both inside and outside. Visitors have the opportunity to see golden stars on the ceiling and sculptures of naked people on the walls, symbolizing the diversity of human life. Inside the apple there are bronze scenes from the myths of the peoples of the world, which trace the history of human passions from the moment of the Fall to the search for spiritual heights. Despite the presence of erotic scenes, they are intended to emphasize the concept of the emergence and development of life.

Вход, который указан на карте с улицы, был закрыт, попасть внутрь удалось через музей. Работа достаточно любопытная, но после более интересных творений этого же автора не производит особого впечатления. Однако, если окажетесь поблизости, стоит взглянуть.

To visit this, you need to purchase a 20 lari ticket for the entire museum. The entrance is located at 27 Rustaveli Avenue.

It's okay, neither amazing nor disappointing. Worth a visit if you're passing by on your way to another attraction. It's a bit tucked away among the houses, so keep your eyes peeled.

Leider konnte ich das Kunstwerk nur von außen fotografieren, da es nur mit einem Museumsbesuch zugänglich ist.

Отличное место для фотографий, но оно расположено во внутреннем дворе музея, и для доступа потребуется купить билет на вход.

This place features a beautiful and one-of-a-kind sculpture, which locals say has an interesting story behind it. It can get crowded, especially on weekends, so for the best photos, visit early on a weekday morning. There is a café or restaurant nearby, though I haven’t tried it myself. Entry is free, and you don't need to make a reservation.

Located in the vibrant center of Tbilisi, this monument truly captures the essence of romance and local flair. Its large apple design, complete with a heart shape, stands out as a modern and playful piece of art. The surrounding area is delightful, with cozy cafes and shops nearby, making it a perfect pitstop during a city tour. While the design might feel a touch kitschy to some, it adds a charming contrast to the more traditional sites around Tbilisi.

An incredible piece of sculpture with amazing acoustics. Give it a try by gently humming a favorite melody. Your voice will resonate like an entire choir. Plus, there's no charge for entry.

I was really taken aback to see such a monument in Tbilisi. The bas-reliefs on the wall are incredible, and there are stars on the ceiling.

The sculpture, created by Zurab Tsereteli, stands out with its impressive 9-meter height. Inside, there are bronze scenes illustrating myths from around the world, symbolizing the beginning of life. It's fascinating to follow the story of human emotions, from the Fall and the shift from innocence to disobedience. Some scenes, which might remind one of ancient Indian temple reliefs, have an erotic touch, but it's important to see them as part of the overarching theme of life's development from its origins to spiritual heights.

It's hard to believe this can be found right in the middle of Rustaveli Avenue, tucked away behind the Moma Gallery. Created by the renowned Georgian artist Zurab Tsereteli, this impressive Rotonda-style sculpture stands 9 meters tall and features 145 sculptures both inside and outside. The ceiling is adorned with golden stars, while the walls display figures of naked people. This structure is a smaller version of a larger piece and is situated in the museum's yard. Zurab is also famous for the St. George monument on Freedom Square. The sculpture is titled “Apple of Love.”
