Abstract

Being a small provincial town within the Kursk region till 1954, Belgorod was not very often depicted by artists. Only since the late 1950s, while already becoming itself a regional center, it began to attract professional artists. In 1968 they had found here the regional organization of the Union of artists. The Belgorod State Art Museum was founded in 1983. Nowadays it has the most representative collection of works by artists of the Belgorod region, which can be studied in the context of the development of Russian art in the 2nd half of the 20th – 21st centuries. A significant array of works from the Museum's collections is dedicated to the image of Belgorod. These works represent both panoramic and retrospective views of it, as well as “urban interiors”, which suggest ways of artistic perception associated with images of single buildings, fragments of the environment, and specific human types. The article presents the systematization and analysis of images of Belgorod in painting and graphics with the examples of works from the funds of the Belgorod State Art Museum and other museums and private collections.
