Статья посвящена творчеству современного бурятского живописца, скульптора, сценографа Бато Дашицыренова, выставка работ которого состоялась в 2019 году в Художественном музее им. Ц. Сампилова (Улан-Удэ). Произведения художника были представлены на многочисленных выставках России, Франции, США, Нидерландов. Автор ставит целью исследования определить соотношение национальных и общекультурных смыслов в творческом наследии Бато Дашицыренова. Для этого в живописи, графике и скульптуре мастера отмечены образы, мотивы, сюжеты, укорененные в национальной культуре, традициях, обычаях монгольских народов, древней культуре Центральной Азии. С другой стороны, определены элементы техники, средства художественной выразительности, характерные для европейского экспрессионизма и символизма или метаисторического экспрессионизма. Почерк мастера включает и опыт театрального художника, и приверженность музыкальной тематике, и интертекстуальность, и связь знака и архетипа, и своеобразие пластики, палитры, фигуративные особенности (например, акцент на голове персонажа, где, по представлениям бурят, сосредоточен источник души человека), и свободу переходов от живописи к пластическим образам. Результаты и выводы исследования значимы в контексте изучения современных художественных процессов Республики Бурятия, России и Центральной Азии. The article is about the work of a modern Buryat painter, sculptor, stage designer Bato Dashitsyrenov. The exhibition of his artworks took place in 2019 at The Buryatia Republican Art Museum named after Ts.S. Sampilov (Ulan-Ude). The artists works were previously presented at numerous exhibitions in Russia, France, the USA, and the Netherlands. The purpose of the study is to determine the correlation of national and general cultural meanings in the creative heritage of Bato Dashitsyrenov. For this, the author notes images, motives, plots rooted in the national culture, traditions, customs of the Mongolian peoples, the ancient culture of Central Asia in the painting, graphics and sculpture of the master. On the other hand, the author defines elements of technology, means of artistic expression, characteristic of European expressionism and symbolism or metahistorical expressionism. The masters manner includes the experience of a theater artist, commitment to musical themes and intertextuality, the connection of the sign and archetype, the originality of plastics, palettes, figurative features (for example, emphasis on the characters head, where, according to Buryat ideas, the source of the human soul is concentrated), and freedom of transition from painting to plastic images. The results and conclusions of the study are significant in the context of studying contemporary art processes in the Republic of Buryatia, Russia and Central Asia.

In South Africa the modern outlook towards time may be said to have started in 1948. Both the two major observatories, The Royal Observatory in Cape Town and the Union Observatory (now known as the Republic Observatory) in Johannesburg had, of course, been involved in the astronomical determination of time almost from their inception, and the Johannesburg Observatory has been responsible for the official time of South Africa since 1908. However the pendulum clocks then in use could not be relied on to provide an accuracy better than about 1/10 second, which was of the same order as that of the astronomical observations. It is doubtful if much use was made of even this limited accuracy outside the two observatories, and although there may – occasionally have been a demand for more accurate time, it was certainly not voiced.
