Yury Ivanovich Taldykin. He was born on 12 November 1932 in Kizlyar, Dagestan ASSR. He began his art education in Baku and completed it in Tashkent. His teacher was a talented teacher A. P. Lunev, who himself studied with A. Osmerkin, so the influence of the stylistics of Moscow 'Cezannism' was perceived by Taldykin almost at the genetic level. He is a graduate of the art school named after P.P.Benkov, an artist from Kazan who had a decisive influence on Uzbek painting. But Benkov's ‘greyish clay plein air’ didn't stick with him. He strived for more emotionally charged colour, more energetic painterliness, more expressive plasticity. After graduating from the school in 1958, the artist moved to Leninabad, Tajik SSR. In 1960 he was accepted as a member of the Artists Union of the USSR. Further education Yu.Taldykin continued in Moscow, in the Central Experimental Higher Art Studio at the USSR Union of Artists. For a true master, the years of study never end - be it refreshing encounters with nature, indirect connection with local folklore tradition or spiritual continuity from the art of great masters. The circle of traditions, to which he, without lurking, turned, is quite wide and heterogeneous. This is what helped him to find himself, gave him a sense of strength and stability of his work. The Oriental component in his art is immediately striking. The artist painted landscapes of Central Asia with mountains and auls, the Adriatic coast and traditional pictures of the Russian forest. In his paintings - figurative and poetic cognition of the East, its majestic nature, monumental severity of ancient architecture, ringing decorativeness of folk art. From 1968 to 1976 he was a teacher at the music and art boarding school in Tashkent. In 1978 he was elected a delegate to the XI and XII Congress of Artists of Uzbekistan. Since 2000 he lived in Russia in Ivanovo, where he became a member of the Ivanovo branch of the Artists Union of Russia. The artist's works are represented in the Tretyakov Gallery, the Museum of Oriental Art and a number of museums in Uzbekistan, as well as in private collections in France, Italy and other European countries. скрыть
