The HAS SANAT Art Gallery has hosted the opening of the "Nur Shashu" international exhibition, which brings together artists from Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. The exposition features more than 60 paintings by Asel Tleulen, Sansyz Mirziraimov, Abai Nasiridin uulu, and Islam Doorov.
The project explores the theme of a person’s inner light, revealing it through various artistic styles, individual perspectives, and figurative solutions. Despite the diversity of creative approaches, the exhibition is designed as a unified artistic statement about spiritual support, silence, hope, and the depth of human experience.
In a greeting addressed to the participants and guests of the exhibition, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Culture and Information of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Aida Balayeva, emphasized the importance of such projects for strengthening cultural dialogue and spiritual understanding between nations.
"The 'Nur Shashu' exhibition is a significant cultural event that unites the best works of contemporary fine art, reflecting creative exploration and spiritual continuity. It features renowned masters of painting from our country as well as the Kyrgyz Republic. This is not only a platform for demonstrating the creative achievements of artists but also a vivid manifestation of the dialogue of cultures and spiritual unity through art," the congratulatory letter stated.
All participants of the exhibition work in the genre of painting, yet each reveals the theme in a unique way through different styles, motifs, and artistic methods. The exposition combines portrait and landscape imagery with elements of abstraction and inner acceptance. The exhibition is open to the public until May 11, 2026.
