Artistic and cultural features of reflection of cosmogonic images of Tengrian culture in monumental and decorative works of modern Kazakh artist Dauren Tasbulatov. Dauren Tasbulatov's monumental-decorative and illustrative-graphic works represent an immersion into the essence of existence, combining art with national Kazakh elements of cosmic symbolism and mythological narratives. Involving images and mythologemes of traditional Kazakh culture, his work both evokes a sense of cosmic awe, inviting viewers on a journey through the depths of the universe and the mysteries of creation and is deeply rooted in the exploration of existential themes from the origin of space to the interconnectedness of all forms of life. In almost every work, he offers viewers a glimpse into the history of Tengrianism, its role in shaping the worldview of ancient Turkic peoples, and the generation of the modern worldview, as well as provokes reflection on humanity's place in the vast cosmos. In contrast to the existing conditions, when in the modern visual culture of Kazakhstan, dominating positions are taken by so-called opportunistic trends of painting, sculpture, and graphics, the work of Dauren Tasbulatov is favorably distinguished by original interpretation and reading of national mythological images, originality of plot and compositional solutions and author's vision. The results of the art history analysis of creativity and creative methods of the author's works by Dauren Tasbulatov can become both a source of inspiration for young Kazakhstani artists and contribute to the formation of modern national visual culture.
