23rd International Exhibition Triennale Milano:<br />

Tashkent Modernism.Index project<br />

On April 17-23, 2023, the 23rd International<br />

Exhibition Triennale Milano was held in Milan<br />

(Italy). During this exhibition, a presentation of<br />

the unique Tashkent Modernism.Index project<br />

was held.<br />

This project aims to interpret and preserve<br />

the modernist architecture of Tashkent. Thanks<br />

to the project, the international community learnt<br />

about a unique architectural style – Tashkent<br />

modernism. The experts took as a basis 20<br />

monuments of modernism, representing the<br />

architectural, social and historical aspects of<br />

Tashkent.<br />

Tashkent Modernism is an architectural<br />

style that developed in Tashkent between the<br />

1950s and 1990s. It was associated with the<br />

modernization of the city, which was taking place<br />

at that time. The main characteristics of Tashkent<br />

modernism were the use of new materials and<br />

technologies, the functionality and simplicity of<br />

forms, as well as the unique style of facades<br />

construction.<br />

It is considered one of the most interesting<br />

and original architectural styles that developed<br />

during that historical period.<br />

Today, many buildings designed in this style<br />

are architectural monuments and attract the<br />

attention of tourists from all over the world.<br />

The Panorama Cinema Hall was chosen as<br />

one of the objects of study of the project. It is<br />

one of the first immersion halls in Central Asia<br />

for watching panoramic and wide-screen films.<br />

The aesthetics, original layout and unique design<br />

of the cinema make it the main masterpiece of<br />

Tashkent modernism and the most famous piece<br />

of architecture of the 20th century.<br />

Other city buildings included in the Tashkent<br />

Modernism.Index project: The State Museum<br />

of the History of Uzbekistan, the Institute of the<br />

Sun, the Tashkent Circus, the Uzbekistan Hotel,<br />

a television center and many others.<br />
