Biography edit
Ryndzyunskaya was born in Petrozavodsk, Karelia, later moving to Astrakhan with her family.[1][2] She was a member of the Society of Russian Sculptors beginning in 1926, and the organization held meetings in her studio.[3] In 1927 she participated in an exhibition in Moscow to mark the tenth anniversary of the October Revolution, and in 1932 she showed her work at the Venice Biennale.[4] Several of her sculptures are in the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery,[2] including a statue of Mamlakat Nakhangova.[4] Her style has been described as reminiscent of the work of Auguste Rodin and Antoine Bourdelle.[5] At her death Ryndzyunskaya bequeathed many of her works to her native city.[2]
