The article analyzes the work of the artist Garry Rokchinsky, People's Artist of the RSFSR, in the context of the fine arts of Kalmykia in the 1960s – 1990s. It is noted that during this period, called the post-deportation period, the autonomy of the republic was restored, and many masters of art experienced a creative take-off. This was reflected in the appeal to the historical genre, as well as in the search for new artistic expression in Kalmyk art of the second half of the 20th century. The work of Garry Rokchinsky became a vivid expression of these tendencies. His works are marked by the desire to find and figuratively embody ethnic identity, which responded to the revival message of the post-deportation development of Kalmyk art. As one of the directions of its development, it is necessary to highlight the appeal to the philosophical and moral foundations of Buddhist teachings. The creative path of the artist from realism to the iconic symbolism of traditional art and pointless composition is shown. |
