On October 19, 2023 at 4.00 p.m., the Central State Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan together with the International Creative Art Organization opens the exhibition “Kazakhstan on the Silk Road” dedicated to Republic Day.
The Silk Road, which connected East and West for many centuries, was not only a trade route, but also a cultural bridge between different civilizations. Art and culture played an important role in this process, and contemporary artists and cultural workers strive to revive the spirit of the Silk Road through various activities. These efforts contribute to the preservation and promotion of cultural heritage of art along the Silk Road and contribute to the enrichment of cultural dialogue between countries and regions.
The idea is to inspire artists to explore and embody the rich cultural and historical mosaic of this route through the arts.
Today, the artists of the project want to contribute to the development of international relations between countries in the field of art and culture, and continue their Silk Road in South Korea, Japan and Uzbekistan. In the future, countries such as China, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Iran, India, etc. will join this project.
The exhibition will feature more than 100 works by fine art artists from Kazakhstan and South Korea, Japan, Uzbekistan and America, who will demonstrate their unique views and artistic talents. These are original works – paintings, graphics, mixed media works.
The exhibition will be attended by famous artists such as: Umirbek Zhubaniyazov (Kazakhstan), Alpysbai Kazgulov (Kazakhstan), Marat Abdreyev (Kazakhstan), Atakhan Allabergenov (Uzbekistan), Dilorom Mamedova (Uzbekistan), Kim Inhwa (Japan), Ahn Hyunjun (South Korea), Song Hayan (Аmerica), Song Hanul (South Korea - Аmerica), Аzhar Umetaliyeva (Kyrgyzstan) and many others.

11.10.2023 The opening ceremony of the ethnographic exhibition “Ornekpen orilgen oner” was held in Baku
The Central State Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan with the support of the Committee of Culture of the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the International Organization “TURKSOY” organized an international ethnographic exhibition “ART WITH PATTERNED BRAID”, which was held at the National Carpet Museum of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
The opening ceremony was attended by Director of the National Carpet Museum of Azerbaijan Shirin Melikova, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Kazakhstan to Azerbaijan Alim Bayel, delegate TURKSOY Zhalel David and Director of the Central State Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan Rashida Yerimkyzy, who congratulated the guests of the event on the opening of the exhibition.
The concept of the exposition was developed on the basis of the ethnographic collection of the museum, which included artifacts of the traditional culture of the Kazakh people – agricultural and household items, clothing, horse harness, carpet-felt products, etc.
The items of traditional art of the Kazakh people presented at the exhibition “Art with patterned braid” will reflect their history and unique worldview, special traditions and culture formed over millennia of nomadic lifestyle.
Exhibtion goal: to demonstrate the diversity of traditional Kazakh culture based on the ethnographic collection of the Central State Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
A special place at the exhibition is occupied by artifacts of high historical matter, traditional Kazakh “kilems” – carpets and carpet products of small sizes, which differ both in texture and picturesqueness, as well as a variety of ornaments that brightly characterize the features of traditional weaving in Kazakhstan.
It is worth noting that the museum's collection of carpet and felt products, which includes “keel” (carpets) and carpet products, has more than 1,760 storage units. Among the carpets, unique types of products should be particularly noted, for example, “Araby kilem”, which differ in specific technique of work, compositional structure and iconographic solution, which is horizontal stripes with repeating patterns. "Araby kilem" is also used as another carpet, weaving along the base, creating a finished canvas. In the manufacturing process, two weaving techniques are used: “orama teru” (winding technique) in the patterned part, “terme teru” (canvas weaving technique) – in the patterned part. Therefore patterns of “Araby kilem” are the same, both in front and on the wrong side.
In exhibition “Art with patterned braid” the treasure of the Kazakh culture was presented by traditional agriculture, household utensils, which installed according to his traditional location in mobile house “kiiz ui” (yurt). So, in the place of honor of the yurt "tor" there are richly ornamented "sandyk" (chest), items of horse equipment "yertokym" and "kamshy" (saddle, wheep), "adalbakan" (clothes hanger) are exhibited in the "right" male side, while household utensils are "kebezhe", "saba", etc. – on the left, i.e. "female" side in accordance with the rules of the traditional division of space "kiiz ui".
Totally of 67 storage units are presented at the exhibition.

Since 1971, she studied the history of costume in the 18th and 19th centuries and dreamed of becoming a costume designer, and in 1994 she began working with individual orders, paying great attention to concert costumes. Thus, Gulfarida developed costumes for the presentation of the capital of Kazakhstan - Astana (now Nur-Sultan), costumes for little performers of the Republican children's music competition "Onshi Balapan", modeled costumes for Kazakh pop stars - Ye. Shakeyev, R. Stamgaziyev, K. Abdildina, A. Issatayeva, Honored Artists of the Republic of Kazakhstan - B. Samedinova and M. Ilyassova, etc. She took an active part in the celebration of the 150th anniversary of Zhambyl.
Work and cooperation with theaters played an important role in choosing creative guidelines. At M. Auezova Kazakh State Academic Drama Theater for the play “The Last Days of Abylay Khan”, the artist reliably completed sketches of the khan’s costume, corresponding to the ancient costumes of the Kazakh nomadic nobility.
An important place in the work of G. Dzhaniyarova is occupied by a series of her paintings executed with vivid artistic expressiveness, demonstrating the diversity of amazing nature.
G. Dzhaniyarova was the first to become a member of the International Association of Doll Authors among Kazakh artists (author’s project “Dolls of Kazakhstan”). She also took an active part in International Doll Exhibitions (the Russian Federation, Moscow).
The artistic basis of this exhibition is a new collection of original works. These are dolls of historical figures in historical costumes: Raiymbek Batyr, Genghis Khan, decorative items of animals (a collection of dogs), as well as figures of rare birds. All these works will be presented at the exhibition.
The exhibition features more than 80 works of art.
