A digital copy of a traditional Uzbek house, particularly a house in Tashkent mahalla, has been presented at the Alserkal Art Week – an exhibition held in Dubai, UAE.
The 15th International Exhibition of Modern Arts “Art Dubai 2022” has launched in Dubai on 8 March and will run through 13 March 2022. Alserkal Art Week is also taking place as a part of the exhibition and is dedicated to the week of art and is organized in Alserkal Avenue.
Key illustrations of the modern art are exhibited at the event, among which the digital art, NFT and VR have been highlighted by the organizers of the exhibition.
Uzbekistan is represented by the Art and Culture Foundation of Uzbekistan, functioning under the Ministry of Culture of Uzbekistan. The Foundation displayed the project named “Mahalla Unframed”, created and designed by the organization. “Mahalla” is translated as “neighborhood “from Uzbek language and represents traditional Uzbek neighborhood culture and atmosphere in urban and rural areas of Tashkent.
Uzbekistan’s exhibit was presented as a digital copy of a traditional Tashkent house with a private garden and patio. The digital copy has been developed byGiga Design Studio in a real size format, which allows the visitors to feel as if they were really in the house.
Earlier this year, the Foundation for the Development of Culture and Art of Uzbekistan, with the assistance of the National Commission for UNESCO and IICAI, organized a unique team of leading scientists, experts, architects and researchers, who carried out a large-scale study of the mahallas (traditional neighborhoods) of Tashkent city.
Traditional mahalla attracted the interest of the international community. It was perceived by experts as a way to revive eco-architecture, as a method of preserving the community, social values, and at the same time as a solution to the problem of mass urbanization of modern cities.
The foundation has been working on including Tashkent mahallas in the UNESCO World Heritage List, so far it in the Tentative List, which provides an opportunity to nominate them to the UNESCO World Heritage List in the future.
So far, Uzbekistan several sites have already been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, such as the Historic Center of Bukhara, Historic Center of Shakhrisabz, Itchan Kala – the historical center of Khiva, Samarkand (as the crossroad of cultures), and the Western Tian-Shan mountains.
