The museum is great. There is no need to even talk about the uniqueness of the creation of the museum and the artistic value of the exhibits presented, I know everything about it. I will note some details for those who plan to visit. The entrance for citizens of Uzbekistan is 19,000 soums, water cannot be carried, you can take pictures, the staff is polite, well-lit halls, there is a place to sit down to relax, there are stands with information about the life of the artists represented.
This is a pearl among the sands.....
The founder of the museum, I.V.Savitsky, once dreamed that people would come from France to visit the museum....
The collection has up to 100,000 exhibits, consisting of three departments; archeology is the art of ancient and medieval Khorezm, fine art is the Russian avant-garde of the 1920s and 30s.. (the second collection in the world after the Russian Museum), Uzbek (A.Volkov, P.Benkov, N.Kashina, U.Tansykbayev, etc.) and Karakalpak (relatively modern) schools of fine arts and the department of folk applied arts of Karakalpakstan (embroidery, carpet weaving, jewelry)
It is definitely worth visiting the museum, since you are already in Nukus))
A magnificent museum.
An excellent collection of Russian avant-garde, social realism and local paintings.
These styles are intricately intertwined in the paintings.
In addition, artifacts of antiquity are presented - the Zaroastrian time.
Exactly one of the places on the must see list
