About the Item

Epiphany 1987, paper, mixed technique, 24x29 cm "Epiphany" is a surreal figurative artwork created in 1987. Through its composition, the artwork invites viewers to contemplate the concept of sudden realizations or moments of clarity. The use of unconventional imagery and mixed techniques contributes to the artwork's evocative and thought-provoking nature. Albert Goltyakov (1924-2016) Born in a family of workers. Studied at the Krasnoselsk Technical School of Artistic Metal Processing (1948-52), graduated from the LVMA Department of Graphics (1959); diploma thesis – illustrations for the Е.M. Remark novel "Time to live and time to die" (directed by P. Upītis). Participates in exhibitions since 1958. MS member since 1964.

LMA teacher (since 1959), dean of the Fine Arts Department (1967-71), assistant professor (since 1970), master's degree (1992). The work is characterized by publicistic and patriotic pathos. At the beginning of his career, he made linocut cycles on the themes of the revolution and World War II ("Kara gadi", 1965; "We are on the road", 1959-63). In later years he turned to painting; large-format figurative compositions, solving global problems related to the past and future of humanity ("Death of Apollo", 1974; "Man. Earth.
