23 November 2022 – 6 March 2023.

✅ The Arab World Institute: The Road to Samarkand. Miracles of Silk and Gold.

The exhibitions were opened by the President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev and President of France Emmanuel Macron on November 22. Both exhibitions are dedicated to Uzbekistan’s history and culture. One of the main goals is to show the civilization and culture of Central Asia in Europe, in one of the leading museums in the world – the Louvre.

The exhibition in the Louvre covers the 5th-6th centuries BC to the reign of the Timurids, and the Arab World Institute presents exhibits of the 19th – mid-20th centuries, as well as paintings of the Turkestan avant-garde from the collection of Uzbekistan state museums.

Many especially unique exhibits left Uzbekistan for the first time, including the famous wall painting of the 7th century, depicting a hunting scene, found in the ancient settlement of Varakhsha in Bukhara region, the pages of one of the oldest monumental Korans from Katta Langar, in Sogdiana, a charred wooden panel from the settlement of Kafir-Kala, a statue of Buddha “Garland-bearer” (1st century BC – 1st century AD), a copy of the book of Marco Polo of the 14th century about his wanderings in Asia, treasures in gold from Bactria (Dalverzin Tepe), as well as silver, silk, and fine ceramics.

The exhibitions take visitors on a fascinating journey through space and time to the crossroads of civilisations, in the heart of Central Asia. This is a place of intersection of many trade routes, exchange between East and West, nomadic and sedentary ways of life, synthesis of cultures of various civilizations – Iranian, Hellenistic, Turkic, Chinese, Indian, Arab Muslim, Mongolian, and others.

The exhibitions presented by Uzbekistan in Paris will allow millions of people from all over the world to see the artifacts of this great history with their own eyes.
