Belarusian sculptor Dmitry Oganov was born in 1976 in the city of Novopolotsk into the family of the renowned sculptor Lev Oganov. From early childhood, Dmitry was fascinated by drawing and sculpture, receiving his first lessons under the guidance of his father, a graduate of the I.E. Repin Academy of Arts. In 1998, he graduated from the A.K. Glebov Minsk Art College, Department of Sculpture, and in 2004 from the Belarusian State Academy of Arts with a degree in sculpture.

From 2005 to 2008, Oganov undertook an internship at the Creative Workshops of Painting, Graphics, and Sculpture under the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Belarus, supervised by M.A. Savitsky and L.M. Gumilevsky. He currently teaches at the Belarusian State University, Department of Design, giving courses such as drawing and monumental-decorative forms in interior and exterior design.

Dmitry Oganov works professionally in monumental-decorative and easel sculpture, employing bronze, stone, wood, and glass. The uniqueness of his art lies in the breadth of his creative and technical skills, which allow him to find plastic solutions that fully embody his artistic vision. Technical mastery serves as the foundation for his constant search for expressive forms, creative solutions, and material synthesis. In his works, the sculptor skillfully combines bronze, stone, and glass, greatly expanding his artistic possibilities. He masterfully applies his technical expertise to create unique and intellectual works.

In Belarus, his monumental works include: co-author of the memorial to the soldiers of the First World War (Minsk, 2011), the sculpture Youth (Novopolotsk, 2012), the sculpture Student (Minsk, BSUIR, 2012), the memorial sign The Appearance of the Minsk Icon of the Mother of God on the Svisloch River in 1500 (Minsk, 2015), the Alley of Glory complex commemorating fallen police officers (Minsk, 2015), the sculpture Cradle of Time (Novopolotsk, 2018), the sculptural composition To Border Guards of All Generations (Polotsk, 2022), the monumental composition for the Volozhin Yeshiva The Poet and the Rabbi (Volozhin, 2024), and the sculptural composition Entry into Jerusalem (Minsk, 2025).
