The discussion revealed the key ideas and concept of the Biennial, highlighting its mission as an international platform that unites Bukhara’s cultural heritage with contemporary artistic practices. It was emphasized that initiatives like this contribute to the growth of tourist flows and strengthen international interest in the city.
Special attention was given to the preparatory processes, which included research work, engagement of international and local experts, as well as the careful selection of locations for the program — taking into account their tourism and cultural potential.
