Two Sides of the Same Force: A Photo Reportage

Two Sides of the Same Force: A Photo ReportageThe Red Bull Dance Your Style Championship has been running since 2019. In 2026, the competition is taking place in 57 countries, from Brazil to Japan. The format is the same everywhere: 16 finalists, one-on-one battles, music unknown in advance and no professional judging panel. Each round is decided by the audience. The winner of the national final then advances to the World Final, which this year will take place in Switzerland. For Uzbekistan, this is the second consecutive year of participation. Ildar Sadykov was there to capture the event and share his impressions.HD magazine editorial office, Ildar Sadykov#Symbols & Meanings#Heritage & Identity

The Story of Four Women Who Preserved the Uzbek School of Dance

The Story of Four Women Who Preserved the Uzbek School of DanceWhen people speak of safeguarding intangible cultural heritage, they usually think of archives, museums, recordings, government programmes or festivals. Yet it is possible to preserve an ensemble's name, its costumes and even its repertoire while gradually losing something that cannot be documented: the artistic language of the school itself. The history of Uzbek stage dance shows that its continuity has been sustained not only through dance productions but also through the people who, in different periods, assumed different responsibilities. This chain did not emerge by chance. It was forged over decades.Alfiya Kalmaganbetova#Traditions#Heritage & Identity
