Abai Kunanbaiuly is one of the most inspiring figures in Kazakh art. Classic paintings, rare photos, and modern pop images depicting Abai transcend generations and social constructs. Every artist sees him differently, from their own soul, leading to particular representations and unique visuals.
Scholar Diana Kudaibergenova speaks to the continuing relevance of Abai as a cultural figure in modern Kazakhstan, while recognizing his rich history and titan-like status.
Abai was undoubtedly a modernist. How did he develop his peculiar view and language? Kazakh intelligentsia give insight into Abai's way.
Peter Rollberg, Associate Dean and Professor at George Washington University’s Elliott School of International Affairs, writes on Abai's life and works.
