About the Item
Step. Astana
Where tradition meets the sky
Before you is a vivid testimony to how the ancient soul of the steppe finds expression in modern architecture. In 2018, Alexander Khrapachov created more than just a landscape: it is a poetic tale about Khan Shatyr, a giant structure that has become the heart of Astana and a symbol of Kazakh identity.
Khan Shatyr is not just a building. It is a yurt transformed into an architectural manifesto, where the millennial traditions of nomads merge with the genius of modern design. The artist stood near Turan Dangyly 37 to capture the moment when the steppe sun gilds this synthesis of classicism and urban grandeur, when the eternal steppe winds wash over the contours of the future.
On an 80x100 cm canvas, Khrapachov skillfully balances academic precision and impressionistic freedom of brushwork. The space of the steppe — endless, open, breathing — contrasts with the verticality of architecture reaching for the sky. It is a dialogue between earth and air, past and present, tradition and innovation.
Every ray of sunlight, every shade of sky on this canvas is a tribute to a civilization that has preserved its essence by incorporating it into new forms. Owning this work means keeping a piece of the great steppe, its freedom and wisdom, frozen in the moment of encounter with the 21st century, in your home.
Art that connects continents and eras.
