Academy building

After the transfer of the capital of the Kazakh SSR from Kyzylorda to Alma-Ata, it became necessary to build a new administrative center for state institutions. Therefore, the construction of a building for the Government of the Kazakh SSR (modern address - 136 Bogenbai Batyr Street) was carried out in 1927-1931. The authors of the project were M. Ginzburg and F. Milinis, the engineer was V. Orlovsky. The design of the building won the All-Union competition of the Moscow Architectural Society.

The building was occupied by the famous Soviet figure L.I. Mirzoyan, the First Central Committee of the Communist Party (Bolsheviks) of Kazakhstan.[12]

In 1941 the building was reconstructed by architects B. Dergachev, G. Kushnarenko and engineer N. Orazmybetov, as a result of which the wings were completed and the roof was replaced.[13]

After the construction of a new government building in 1958, the structure was transferred to the Kazakh State University named after S. M. Kirov. During this period, there was a monument to Kirov in the vestibule of the academic building.

In 1982, the building housed the Theatre and Art Institute, which later got a new name - Almaty Institute of Theatre and Cinema named after Zhurgenov. Zhurgenov Almaty Institute of Theater and Cinematography.[12]

The building currently houses the Zhurgenov Kazakh National Academy of Arts.
