Aleksandr Vampilov haykali, Bronze memorial statue at Karl Marx Street in Irkutsk, Russia

The Aleksandr Vampilov monument is a statue of the Soviet playwright and prose writer (1937–1972) unveiled on 20 September 2003 in the square beside the Irkutsk Academic Drama Theater on Karl Marx Street, in the city's Right-Bank district. The sculptor was Mikhail Pereyaslavets, People's Artist of Russia.

The monument to Aleksandr Vampilov, a Russian Soviet playwright and prose writer (1937–1972), was unveiled on 20 September 2003 on Karl Marx Street in a square by the Irkutsk Academic Drama Theater. Its sculptor was Mikhail Pereyaslavets, a People's Artist of Russia. The monument has been reproduced on a postage envelope.

The statue stands close to the Academic Drama Theater, where Vampilov's plays are still performed today. People heading to or from the theater often stop in front of it for a moment before moving on.

The statue is at a central crossroads in the theater district and easy to reach on foot from the city center. It is outdoors and open at any time, so a short detour is all it takes to see it.

Unlike most monuments where the subject stands high on a pedestal, Vampilov appears at street level, as if walking alongside the people passing by. This makes the encounter feel more like meeting someone than visiting a memorial.
