The Tbilisi Architects and Sculptors Association was established in 2008 by a group of sculptors and architects with the mission of supporting and promoting the fields of sculpture and architecture in Georgian public spaces.
Over the years, the association's members have actively participated in numerous public and private initiatives, contributing significantly to the development of these disciplines. Notable achievements include their involvement in crafting the Georgian Culture Strategy 2025 under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Monuments Protection and the creation of guidelines for establishing architectural-artistic compositions, led by the Tbilisi City Council.
Since 2016, the association's members have been represented on the Commission for assessing the feasibility of placing architectural-artistic compositions and memorial boards within the administrative boundaries of Tbilisi Municipality. They have also contributed to documenting sketches and cost estimates for monumental fine art statues commemorating historical events and figures, as well as other memorial objects and sculptural compositions, in collaboration with Tbilisi City Hall.
Thanks to the association's efforts, Tbilisi City Hall has established tender terms, assessment criteria, and minimum budget guidelines, among other important measures, which have repeatedly benefited Georgian society.
In addition to these contributions, the association has played a pivotal role in protecting sculptors' copyrights, ensuring the rights and recognition of Georgian authors.
The association also organizes exhibitions, participates in scientific research events, and hosts lectures and conferences on philosophical, historical-artistic, and ethnographic topics, further fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of architecture and sculpture in Georgia.
