The city has a subjectively internalised history of
epidemics and of representations in the colonial era as an infected land that
needed to be conquered from nature, disease and oriental habits in order to be
made healthy, modern and profitable. These narratives culminated with the
identification of the bacillus causing the plague during an epidemic in Hong

registered in 2012 in Dushanbe. DAG mission is to advocate for the development
of contemporary art practices in Tajikistan, to redefine the role of the artist
in contemporary society and shift the function of the artist from mere producer
to engaged researcher and critic. DAG strategy is to achieve long-term
sustainable development for new media arts and new platforms where creative and
civic communities could collaboratively invent alternative avenues for social
development and change. Dushanbe Art Ground activity is supported by Open Society
