Tashkent, Uzbekistan

Sarvar Sulaymonov is an artist from Tashkent, Uzbekistan.  He was born Sep 19, 1983, in Kokand, Uzbekistan.  His studies include the Republic art college in 1998, the faculty of the National Art Design Institute in 2002, and the art studio of artist Salpenkidi Yanis Ponaetovich.  After graduating from the Institute in 2008, he now teaches drawing, painting, and composition in the Tashkent Architecture Building Institute.  His works have been featured in many exhibitions since 1999. 

Uzbekistan is slightly larger than California with long hot summers and mild winters.  The literacy rate is 99% -- 1/3rd of the population is under age 14.  Uzbekistan is a doubly-landlocked country, bordered by Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan.  A person in a doubly-landlocked country has to cross at least two borders to reach a coastline.  There are only two such countries in the world: Uzbekistan and Liechtenstein.

Uzbekistan Samarkand - the Registan

Uzbekistan, the region’s cradle of culture for more than two millennia, is the proud home to a spellbinding arsenal of architecture and artefacts, all deeply infused with the raw, fascinating history of the country.  If there were a Hall of Fame for Central Asian cities, Uzbekistan would own the top-three entries: Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva.  The names practically epitomize the region, conjuring up images of knife-twirling dervishes, serpentine desert caravans and architecture that blends with the sand.  Seen in person, the Big Three do not disappoint.  Alas, they sometimes overshadow the country’s other attractions, which include dazzling bazaars, ancient fortresses, and an impressive array of largely unsung natural attractions.
