Sculpture Ali and Nino

Description

The Sculpture of Ali and Nino in Batumi stands as a poignant symbol of love transcending cultural divides. Crafted by Georgian artist Tamara Kvesitadze, these seven-meter metallic figures portray a tale of romance from Kurban Said's novel. Installed in 2010, the sculptures move closer, merging and passing through each other, reflecting the enduring and often complex nature of love. Set against the backdrop of the Black Sea, this dynamic installation not only captures the narrative's essence but also enriches Batumi's cultural landscape, drawing visitors with its evocative depiction of passion, unity, and the seamless blend of art with storytelling.

This amazing moving sculpture in Batumi is one of the most romantic places in Georgia. The metal figures of Ali and Nino move slowly, merging in an embrace and parting again, symbolizing the eternal tragedy of love from the famous novel. It's a fascinating sight, especially at sunset, when the figures are illuminated. It feels like a deep metaphor. A great place for a photo, with the sea and Batumi Boulevard as the background. Come in the evening when the lights turn on – the sculpture looks magical
