Centre for Contemporary Arts Tashkent Opens in Uzbekistan

The Centre for Contemporary Arts Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s first permanent institution devoted to contemporary art, has opened, marking a significant global expansion for our field. What makes this particularly resonant for emerging women artists is the appointment of Sara Raza as Artistic Director and Chief Curator. A London-born curator, writer, and educator, Raza exemplifies women leading major cultural initiatives. Her leadership at this pioneering institution underscores the growing influence and diverse career paths available to women in the arts. This development not only widens the landscape for showcasing art but also inspires confidence in women's ability to shape global cultural dialogue. — Source: Artforum
