Talantbek Chekirov

An interesting new discovery in the sphere of ornamental art named Talantbek Chekirov was born on April 15, 1971 in the former Soviet republic of Kirghizia. His painting shows varied aspects of the beautiful and the decorative in art; his works are extracts of his rich and broadly situated ideas concerning the ideal notion of the beauty in painting. Therefore, it is of little surprise that such dissimilar genre as landscapes and the stylised antique nude paintings are represented in his work.
Talantbek Chekirov visited the State College of Art between 1986 and 1990. In this period, Chekirov acquired detailed knowledge, in the fields of plastic anatomy, graphics and composition, which highlights his work as an artisan. As regards Chekirovs paintings, one may unequivocally ascertain that now as before "art through proficiency" comes - in the manual as well as the creative sense. In 1990, Chekirov completed his education in the domain of the creative arts with majors in theatrical painting and constructive art.
Thereafter his path led him towards the world famous Bolschoi Theatre in Moscow, where he took over the artistic staging of the scenery between 1990 and 1992. During his travels through Europe from 1992 until 1994, he studied the most important works and artists that had been kept obscured from him during his studies at college. In recent years, close contacts in Germany moved the young painter to settle down at Bochum, Westfalen for the time being.
