Vladimir Vysotski (1938–1980) was a Russian singer, songwriter, poet, and actor whose influence extended far beyond the stage. Known for his deep, gravelly voice and uncompromising lyrics, he became a voice of truth for millions during the Soviet era.
Often portrayed with his guitar, this sculpture emphasizes both his artistic intensity and rebellious spirit. It reflects his role as a cultural icon who challenged convention through music and performance.
Though his songs were often censored and rarely released officially, they spread widely through bootleg recordings, resonating with people for their honesty about Soviet life, hardship, and the everyday struggles of ordinary people.
Despite his relatively short life, Vysotski remains a powerful symbol, remembered not only as an artist, but as a voice of integrity and defiance in a time of oppression, corruption, and control.
