Almira Gainullowna Janbuchtina ( Russian Альмира Гайнулловна Янбухтина ; * July 28, 1938 in Ufa ; † November 20, 2018 ibid) was a Soviet - Russian art scholar and university teacher of Bashkir origin.

Life

Janbuchtina's father Gainulla Jambuchtin suffered from tuberculosis and died when Janbuchtina's grandfather Dawletscha Janbuchtin was shot as an enemy of the people during the Great Terror of 1937 . Janbuchtina's mother was a forest technician and worked in the tree nursery of the Nepeizewski Forest Research Station in Ufa. Janbuchtina grew up with her maternal grandmother in the village of Karan ( Busdjak district ), 100 km from Ufa . Janbuchtina's relative Lyudmila Wassiljewna Kasanskaja studied art at the University of Leningrad and was the first female art scholar in Ufa to be the curator of the Nesterov Art Museum in Ufa, where she was frequently visited by Janbuchtina.

In 1960 Janbuchtina began studying at the Leningrad Repin Institute for Painting , Sculpture and Architecture (until 1918 Imperial Academy of Arts , then WChUTEMAS , WChUTEIN ) in the Department of Art History . In the same year her mother died, so that the orphaned Janbuchtina had to live from her scholarship in a dormitory. It participated in 1962 in the student uprising against the graduating, the new president of the Moscow Academy of Arts of the USSR Vladimir Alexandrovich Serov for Doctor of Arts Sciences. The possible exclusion from studies was delayed so that she was able to complete her studies with a diploma in 1966. This was followed by an apprenticeship at the Research Institute of the Art Industry in Moscow , supervised by Erna Wassiljewna Pomeranzewa .

Janbuchtina has now worked for seven years as a teacher at the Chair of Architecture in the Faculty of Construction at the Ufa Petroleum Institute. She was also an advisor to the Agidel Art Association . In 1976 she successfully defended her dissertation on fabrics and interiors with a view to the artistic ensemble of the Bashkir home for her doctorate in 1977 as a candidate in the arts.

Janbuchtina now taught at the Ufa State Academy for Economics and Service (UGAES). From 1994 she headed the chair for design . From 1998 she worked on her doctoral thesis on decorative arts in Bashkortostan in the 20th century, which she successfully defended in 2002 for her doctorate in art studies in 2003. In 2004 she was appointed professor .

Janbuchtina's second research focus was the life and work of the Bashkir painter Alexander Erastowitsch Tjulkin (1888–1980), with whom she was well known and about whom her first publication had appeared in 1969. In 1989, with the support of Handelsbank Vostok , she began to build up a collection of modern and traditional art from Bashkortostan, which soon comprised more than 500 works by Bashkir artists. There was also a corresponding archive . She repeatedly took part in ethnographic expeditions in Bashkortostan. She was a member of the Association Internationale des Critiques d'Art (since 1993) and the Expert Art Council for Monumental Art of the Urals and Western Siberia .
