However, its history goes back to 1994 when President Islam Karimov set up a fine art collection amassed by the National Bank for Foreign Economic Activity of Uzbekistan.
The Gallery was reconstructed and received its new look in a short period of time after its establishment.
The museum’s exhibition area is estimated to be 3,500 square meters, with 15 rooms.
There are cafeterias and small gift shops at the main building of the Gallery.
The Art Gallery of Uzbekistan is located in Buyuk Turon street, Tashkent.
