The first Bukhara Biennial of Contemporary Art brings new meaning to the collaborative creativity of artists, artisans, designers and researchers. Each work is the result of a dialogue between international authors and local masters, where traditions intertwine with contemporary artistic practices.

More than 70 works have transformed Bukhara’s historic ensembles into vibrant spaces, where art restores a new voice to ancient walls.

The Bukhara Biennial is a platform for open dialogue, where national heritage is seamlessly woven into the global cultural process, and Uzbekistan affirms itself as a country of creation, collaboration and cultural leadership.
