What do you mean by "artistic library" (some examples of them would be nice)? 

There are packages for producing images/gifs and opengl bindings, but I haven't seen anything like Processing or Cinder.

for producing 3d graphics.

i have no examples, i am beginner programmer artist.

In that case, I am not so sure that Go is the right choice for you.

There are a few graphics options like OpenGL bindings (https://github.com/go-gl) and others,

but they are all very immature and often incomplete.

Python may be a better option, as it has a lot more libraries available for graphics programming.

I would have to agree with Jim, the community libraries are currently dealing more with "essentials", but the artistic stuff will probably come, at some point. You could do raytracing with CSG (https://bitbucket.org/zombiezen/goray/wiki/Home, https://github.com/kid0m4n/rays/tree/master/gorays, http://www.iquilezles.org/www/index.htm)... it doesn't require that much code/libraries.

You can look up http://hackingforartists.com/ for alternatives.

Go is suitable for to "Creative Coding".  I know the OP asked for 3D, but for 2D work, libraries like SVGo [1] [2] and OpenVG [3][4] may be used in some cases where Processing and OpenFrameworks are used.  On the website for the  book, "FORM+CODE in Design, Art and Architecture", you will see examples in Go.

If you`re into C++ try Cimg (  https://cimg.eu/ )    It's an excellent way to create your own images, fractals, artwork etc. but it does have a learning curve  ..
I also found Lode PNG quite usefu l https://lodev.org/lodepng/  but it requires a lot more  additional code than Cimg
