Abstract
In 2024, Zurab Konstantinovich Tsereteli, President of the Russian Academy of Arts, will celebrate his 90th birthday. This article provides an art history analysis of Tsereteli's exhibition “Painting of a Monumentalist”, which was held at the Altai State Art Museum in July-August 2023. The author examines the formation of the artist's creative handwriting and world-view, and concludes that painting is the most significant form of artistic creation for Z.K. Tsereteli in terms of content, skill, and translation of value categories. Through analysis of the exhibition, individual works, and images, the author identifies the main thematic category on which most of the artist's works are based: the value of human earthly life. Additionally, the author identifies the primary methods used by the artist to create the comic. In conclusion, the author defines the cultural paradigm in which the work of Z.K. Tsereteli occupies its place.
