Barkhin was born in Moscow on 31 March 1938, into the family of architect Mikhail Barkhin. His mother, Elena Borisovna Novikova (4 June 1912 – 20 July 1996), was an architect and professor at the Moscow Architectural Institute. The family lived in the House of Architects, Moscow on Rostovskaya Embankment. He attended School No. 31. From 1956 to 1962 he studied at the Moscow Architectural Institute. His diploma project was a museum devoted to Vladimir Lenin in Moscow, which he proposed placing on Red Square. He worked in architecture and book illustration, as well as at theatres in Moscow, Vilnius, Gorky, Sverdlovsk (during the 1970s, at the Young Spectators Theatre), Saratov, Kuibyshev and elsewhere. From 1988 to 1992 he was chief designer of the Stanislavski and Nemirovich-Danchenko Theatre. From 1995 to 2000 he was artistic director and chief designer of the Bolshoi Theatre. Barkhin designed more than 200 productions—operas, ballets and plays—in many cities of the former Soviet Union and abroad, including Germany, Finland, Sweden, Japan, Turkey and the Czech Republic. Beginning in the 1980s, he regularly collaborated with theatre directors Genrietta Yanovskaya and Kama Ginkas at the Moscow Young Spectator Theater. Together with David Borovsky, he designed the Vsevolod Meyerhold Apartment Museum (1994). He founded and for many years headed the scenography department of the Russian Institute of Theatre Arts (1992–2007), where he was a professor. He became a full member of the Russian Academy of Arts in 2011. He was a member of the unions of architects (from 1965), artists (from 1974), theatre workers (from 1978) and Moscow writers (from 2013). His wife was actress Elena Kozelkova (born 1937). Barkhin died in Moscow on 19 November 2020 at the age of 82. The cause of death was lung cancer. He was buried in his family's plot at Vvedenskoye Cemetery (plot 25).
