The inaugural Bukhara Biennial, titled 'Recipes for Broken Hearts', will occur between September and November 2023 in Uzbekistan, featuring over 70 local and international artists. Curated by Diana Campbell, the event will highlight collaborations between Uzbek artists and global participants, focusing on site-specific installations. The theme draws inspiration from a local legend tied to Uzbekistan’s famous dish, palov. The biennial will integrate food as a pivotal element, with chefs from Uzbekistan and beyond preparing meals at various venues, reinforcing the communal and cultural ties within the artistic presentations.
"The Bukhara Biennial will present over 70 site-specific contemporary projects, with each work conceived through collaborations between local artisans and artists from Uzbekistan, Central Asia and across the globe."
"Café Oshqozon centres the curatorial concept of the biennial as a body, fed through a nourishing, communal feast of different art forms."
