Now famous and adored Impressionists of the 19th century lived
in poverty creating beautiful pieces of art only to become recognized
and appreciated some 70 years later. Don’t you think that
many of them deserved to be appreciated while they were still
creating finest pieces of art on the peak of their talent?
That’s what we are trying to do. The main idea of this
website is to bring together all talented but unknown artists
of Fergana valley (Uzbekistan) and introduce them to the world.
We want them to be appreciated during their lifetime, not 100
years after. We believe that there are geniuses like Pissarro
and Turner out there. Very often they live a simple and often
reclusive life, concentrating mainly on transferring their vision
of reality to canvas, paper, silk cloth etc. We know they are
very talented, and we want you to see it.
In addition, we are keeping the history alive: all artists
who have ever lived or worked in Fergana will be presented here
and in our collection. We still have a long way to go, but the
end result will be called "History of Fergana Fine Art"
and published as a catalogue.
We are also trying to spread the word about Uzbekistan as a travel destination with thousands of years of amazing history. Our partners in this country that help with acquisitions, include a reputable travel organization capable of arranging fascinating private and group tours.
