An exhibition at the Swiss Architecture Museum uncovers the modernist heritage of the Uzbekistan capital. The roots of Tashkent’s unique architectural heritage can be traced back to 1966, when a devastating earthquake allowed ambitious urbanredevelopment plans to be expedited and the city remade in the image of a Soviet utopia. Contributions from architects throughout the Soviet Union included the Lenin Museum (1970), the State Museum of Arts (1974), and the Heliocomplex Sun (1987). Presented with the Uzbekistan Art and Culture Development Foundation, this exhibition introduces such architectural masterpieces while presenting strategies for preserving and updating modernist buildings in the present.
