Biography[edit]

Ogtay Sadigzade was born on 21 February 1921 in Khizi. From 1935 to 1939, he studied at the Baku Art Technical College and attracted the attention of art critics with his early works. In 1941, as a member of a repressed family, Ogtay Sadygzade was exiled,[why?] but despite the difficult conditions he found himself in, he continued his creativity.[1]

After returning to Baku in 1946, he began to engage in book graphics and achieved success in this field. To continue his education, he entered the Surikov Moscow State Art Institute and graduated in 1956 with a degree in graphics.[1]

The works of the artist were given a special place in the design of the Nizami Museum of Azerbaijani Literature, the National Museum of History of Azerbaijan, the house museums of Uzeyir Hajibeyli, Huseyn Javid, Samad Vurgun and Bulbul.[1]

The artist's works are exhibited in the National Art Museum of Azerbaijan, as well as in the Tretyakov Gallery, and are kept in private collections in the United States, Germany, Canada, Israel, and other countries.[specify][1]

Sadigzade died on 20 December 2014 in Baku.[2]
