Abstract
The author reviews the history of art in Russia's Buryatia in an interpretive analysis, beginning with pre-revolutionary Buddhist art legacies, through various stages of Soviet art policy, to the difficult post-Soviet period of national identity quests. The creative art of pre-revolutionary Buryat Buddhist Sanzhi-Tsykik Tsybikov, Soviets Ivan Kopylov and Tsyrenzhap Sampilov, and the famous post-Soviet Dashi Namdakov is examined. The author argues that current trends toward valorization of Eurasian identity resonate with Russia's politics and popular culture.
