Join the fascinating conversation with art historian Dr. Aliya de Tiesenhausen, artist Asmar Narimanbekova and gallerist Afsana Tahirova moderated by curator and writer Rose Issa, as they present the journey of contemporary Azerbaijani and Central Asian art from its historic roots to current times.

The talk coincides with Caspia Contemporary Gallery’s exhibition Contemporary Art from Azerbaijan | Journey of the Soul, on view at Asia House, London UK on 23 May from 18.30 to 20.30.
