The City-Shaping Role of the Nukus MuseumThe City-Shaping Role of the Nukus MuseumIn recent years, the State Museum of Arts of the Republic of Karakalpakstan named after I. V. Savitsky, a unique tourist attraction in Karakalpakstan better known simply as the Savitsky Museum, has featured in virtually every piece of content promoting Uzbekistan as a tourist destination. Hundreds of publications have appeared in a wide range of formats and across an ever-expanding variety of media. All these projects and initiatives pursue a single aim: to attract travellers to a destination that was once little known by telling the story of an extraordinary museum and its brilliant founder, Igor Vitalyevich Savitsky (1915–1984), a Moscow artist who took part in the celebrated Khorezm Expedition.Marinika Babanazarova#Art#Ideas & Analysis
