Vladimir Vysotsky monument in Melitopol, Bronze sculpture of Russian performer in Melitopol, Ukraine.
The bronze monument stands 5.2 meters tall on Bogdana Hmelnitskogo Avenue, depicting Vladimir Vysotsky holding a guitar in a characteristic pose.
Constructed in 2000 by sculptor Konstantin Chekanev, the monument commemorates the Russian singer and actor who created over 700 poems and songs.
The monument incorporates elements from Vysotsky's theatrical career at Taganka Theater and features inscribed quatrains from his compositions on a sheet before the figure.
The sculpture forms part of the Vertical memorial complex, which includes an 18-meter climbing wall for sports activities and cultural gatherings.
The statue portrays Vysotsky barefoot, a design choice connected to local traditions about receiving creative inspiration through contact with the ground.
