“Ul Yau Yaz”: sculpture by Alfiz Sabirov

Exhibition November 8 − December 8, 2019
Perm State Art Gallery holds an exhibition“Ul Yau Yaz”: sculpture by Alfiz Sabirov.

The exhibition presents a sculpture of small forms of bronze and plaster from the artist’s workshop and private collections.

The idea of Alfiz Sabirov’s exhibition is embedded in the title itself - “Ul Yau Yaz” - this is a story about the eternal path of a mythical hero. Embodying the hero’s eternal path in plastic images, the author masterfully weaves the motives of Tatar folklore, ancient and eastern mythology. Plots of works based on archaic traditions, however, are not always easily identifiable. The visual-semantic connection between ancient and new artifacts is complemented by a series of engravings by an Italian artist of the 19th century Domenico Marchetti from the collection of the Perm Art Gallery.
