A shrine to Soviet modernist architecture, Tashkent is a rare jewel of modernism rediscovered in this book.Established sometime around the 1st or 2nd century BCE, Tashkent is the capital city of Uzbekistan and the largest metropolis in Central Asia benefiting from its historical role as geographic crossroads, its developed resources, and its thriving multiculturalism. Previous Soviet rule was established in 1917which over six decades heralded transformations in Tashkents culture, identity, and, of course, its landscape and architecture.In this extraordinary volume, realized in collaboration with the Uzbekistan Art and Culture Development Foundation, photographer Karel Balas reveals the modernist architecture of Tashkent through a collection of never-before-seen photographs.
