The Museum of Fine Arts of the city of Arkhangelsk opened for visitors a large-scale exhibition of works by the national artist of the USSR and the Russian Federation Zurab Tsereteli. The exhibition includes about a hundred works of authorship, including paintings, sculptures and bronze reliefs.

Such a selection of the artist’s works, performed in various genres, allows you to see the creative portrait of Tsereteli, his unique talent, which allowed the master to use literally all genres and techniques of fine art in his works. The monumental works of Zurab Tsereteli amaze the inhabitants of many cities of our country, his works adorn embassies representing Russia in different countries.

Established in many countries of the world, sculptures and compositions have received international recognition. The memorial complex erected on Poklonnaya Hill according to the project of the master, as well as the monument to Peter the Great, erected in the central part of the capital, naturally fit into its image, turning into a visiting card of Moscow.

Zurab Tsereteli began his career in the profession of an artist at the Tbilisi Academy of Arts, successfully completed in 1958. In the early 60s Tsereteli was engaged in the decoration of the resort towns of Pitsunda and Adler. With his works, the artist confirmed that he can handle the most complex projects of significant proportions.

The sculptural mosaics of Tsereteli’s work became Adler’s jewelry, and the famous artist Sirekoys enthusiastically spoke about the uniqueness of the works in the form of volumetric painting. Tsereteli in his work does not forget the lessons of the famous masters of the Academy, from whom he studied, but is constantly in search of new forms.

The exhibition in Arkhangelsk will be available for viewing on February 10th.
