ABDULDABEKOV Askar Kryuchbekovich
Architect. Member of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union since 1982. Born in 1946 in the city of Frunze. In 1970, he graduated from the Moscow Architectural Institute. After graduation, he was sent to the design institute "Kyrgyzgiproselkhoz," where he initially worked as an architect and rose to the position of chief project architect. From 1976 to 1977, he worked at the Artistic Fund of the Kyrgyz SSR on the project for the comprehensive architectural and artistic design of the Toktogul Hydroelectric Power Station. In 1977, he was invited to the institute "Kyrgyzkommunproekt" as the chief architect of the institute. Since 1978, he has worked as the chief artist of the city of Frunze.
Member of the Union of Architects of the USSR since 1973.
While working in design institutes, A.K. Abduldabekov created individual projects, the most interesting of which are the biological station of the Academy of Sciences of the Kyrgyz SSR and the complex of pavilions "Animal Husbandry" at the VDNH of the Kyrgyz SSR. In the latter work, his inclination towards picturesque and sculptural forms, which are more aligned with the nature of plastic arts than architecture, became evident, leading to his transition into the field of urban design.
A.K. Abduldabekov participated in the creation of a number of monumental works in the republic. Under his leadership and direct participation, the ideological and artistic design of the capital was carried out for significant political events such as the 100th anniversary of the founding of the city of Frunze, the XVII Congress of the Communist Party of Kyrgyzstan, the XXVI Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the 60th anniversary of the formation of the USSR and the Kyrgyz SSR, the 40th anniversary of Victory over fascist Germany, the XVIII Congress of the Communist Party of Kyrgyzstan, the XXVII Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, demonstrations, festivals, and other events (1978—1986).
As the chief artist, he paid much attention to elements of artistic design of the city's streets, advertising, and interiors of buildings and public structures, participating in the creation of small architectural forms, in developments related to the aesthetics of the city, and in competitions.
