Stationary print is one aspect of the work of Alexander Ivanovich Misyurev. He is proficient in the techniques of linocut and lithography. Alongside his work in book graphics, watercolor, and oil painting, he has created significant thematic stationary cycles and individual sheets. The triptych of linocuts "In Difficult Years" (1972) and the autolithograph "For Soviet Power" (1974) are dedicated to the events of the Civil War. The triptych of linocuts "Stages of a Great Journey" ("The News of the Revolution," "M. V. Frunze," "M. V. Frunze Speaks to the Volunteer Detachment," 1984) again raises the historical-revolutionary theme, creating an image of one of the brightest representatives of that era.
Misyurev created the linocut cycle "Cholponbay Tuleberdiev" (1985), which tells about the short but memorable life of the Hero of the Soviet Union, son of the Kyrgyz people, in the memory of new generations. An energetic artist who actively perceives the world, he has created a number of linocut cycles dedicated to the contemporary life of the republic. The main ones include "The City of Frunze" (1978), "At the Minqusha Miners" (1978), and "Sport" (1979). Misyurev knows how to work with natural and documentary material, possesses a variety of compositional techniques, and expressive means of graphic techniques, and often goes on creative business trips. Despite his great productivity and craftsmanship, there are times when a lack of emotional immersion in the theme is felt, with a somewhat mechanical approach to synthesizing life impressions, which is reflected in the overcrowding of several sheets and the repetition of compositional and plastic schemes. These shortcomings recede in Misyurev's best works of book graphics, where he acts as an artist of active compositional thinking.
