On April 22, 2025, the A.I. Nikiforov Art School hosted the opening of an exhibition dedicated to the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War, entitled "The Great Victory through the Eyes of an Artist". The exhibition was organized by the Kostanay Regional Museum of History and Local Lore and is a collection of paintings and graphic works presented from the museum's collection. The exhibition presents works of art in which artists captured key moments of the war and Victory Day. The works reflect not only historical events, but also human experiences associated with the war, victory, sacrifices and the joy of liberation. The exhibition presents works by artists: K. Kametov, A. Timofeev, A. Lazykin, P. Danilov and other masters, whose paintings serve not only as a tribute to those who defended peace, but also as a reminder of how important this peace is for us today. The exhibition “The Great Victory through the Eyes of an Artist” will run for a month.
