Zukhriddinovich Baymatov

He was born in Uzbekistan. Childhood and youth were spent in the old Uzbek district of Tashkent. In the sixties the city was very multicultural, and our street was no exception. Communication with people of different nationalities left their mark on my work in the future. Education in the Republican art school named after benkova city of Tashkent art and industry Institute, Kharkov.

Studied with many teachers but the most influential for me was Boris Token. A sense of gratitude for this man kept me forever. Huge value in my future development had a creative trip to the USSR and artistic work in other countries. In particular, the ICAT gallery, Belgium.
