Abstract
The article is devoted to the first graduation of the artists of Uzbekistan, who received higher art education at the Leningrad Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture named after I.E. Repin in 1947–1953. These are Rakhim Akhmedov, Nigmat Kuzybaev, Tachat Oganesov, Manon Saidov, Viktor Zelikov. Their connection with the Russian and Soviet artistic tradition was of great historical importance, since the graduates later started with the founding of a professional art school in the republic. The creative work of the studied artists vividly embodies the main trends in the development of the art of Uzbekistan in the 1960s – 1980s. Their artworks are kept in many museums around the world.
