The exhibition of restored paintings has opened at the Karakalpak state arts museum named after Igor Savitsky.

The museum, which has more than 90,000 unique exhibits, contains paintings that need to be restored.

The paintings, which have a historic and other importance, are being restored with the help of qualified specialists from Poland, Germany, France and Bulgaria.

“About 100 paintings depicting the past of our people have acquired a new life,” Guljamal Davletova, a museum employee, said.

“These paintings belong to famous artists Alexander Volkov, Vladimir Lisenki, Igor Savitsky and others.”

Most of the paintings are from private collections, whose owners could not provide the required storage conditions.
