“Kazakh folk customs. Childhood and Marriage”
Astana, December 27, 2009, Khabar – The album of Yeraly Ospanuly “Kazakh folk customs. Childhood and Marriage” was presented and the exhibition of painter’s graphics was opened in Astana. The partnership project, organized the Museum of First President with the artist Yeraly Ospanuly and collector Ulan Zhakeyev finishes the series of events dedicated to the Independence Day. The new album “Kazakh folk customs. Childhood and Marriage” is an attempt to systematize the ancient traditions of the nomads.
Ulan Zhakeyev, antiquarian and collector:
- Can you imagine - two thousand years. How many customs, how much lost and forgotten. I think with this project we lift the curtain of our rich heritage.
Ulan Zhakeyev and Yeraly Ospanuly decided to present the album dedicated to the rites of nomads after one of the artist’s works in this series, exhibited at auction Christie’s, took a fancy to European connoisseurs. However, the publication will be interesting primarily to Kazakhstanis.
Engravings of the 18-20th centuries, old photographs, rare editions of the Soviet period, all this was the basis for creating of drawings. The album describes forty customs associated with important events in human life - from birth to marriage. Work took away almost a year.
Yeraly Ospanuly, artist:
- I worked in fact very easily, it is my favorite theme, and the theme is familiar, I worked somewhere with a thirst and desire, like a pioneer. I even almost went away to neighboring Turkic people, where there are overlapping themes, and I wanted to highlight them very much, but still decided to confine within Kazakhstan.
Yeraly Ospanuly and Ulan Zhakeyv plan to release the next album. It will include illustrations and descriptions of half a dozen customs of nomads, most of which are now almost forgotten.
