About the place

Ural Tansykbayev, a People's Artist of the USSR, lived in this two-storey cottage from 1967 to 1974 and planted its garden. His widow, Elizaveta Tansykbayeva, founded the museum, which opened on 16 January 1981 as a branch of the state Museum of Arts.

In 1994, for what would have been his 90th birthday, a two-storey exhibition hall was added to show more of his paintings. The museum is in the Mirzo Ulugbek district.
