Recently, museums and exhibitions have become increasingly popular. In recent years, many residents of Almaty began to attend cultural events in the city more often. One of the most ancient and visited museums of Almaty is the central state museum of Kazakhstan.
The central state museum in Almaty is a material reflection of the entire centuries-old history of Kazakhstan. Here are collected unique archaeological finds from the prehistoric era and ending with today. The museum opened its doors in 1931, located in the building of the former Almaty Cathedral.
Another popular and important have become exhibitions of contemporary art. It is always a little strange, extravagant and very beautiful. One of such exhibitions is “Splitting” by Nurbolat Nurakhmetov. He said, that “My exhibition is analysis, analysis, dissection, and cut. The cut, both physical and visual, temporal and spatial. Analysis of the whole, separation of one from another, fragmentation for the concept of the whole. I work with the figurative, the body, the corporeality and the attitude towards it. The animated body and body soul. All talk of the soul sooner or later descend to the ground, since the body precedes thinking. The presence of the body as a living object or as a monument in the form of a representative body. “

For lovers of history works “Museum of Archeology”.
The basis of the museum, opened in 1973, was the material accumulated over the past fifty years by the works of archaeological expeditions. The museum exposition is deployed in two halls. The first presents two sections – the Stone Age, the Bronze Age. In the second hall – the early Iron Age, the Middle Ages.

An exhibition of wax figures from St. Petersburg also arrives in Almaty from time to time. The wax exhibition is the most interesting thing you can offer your child. If you want to be in the past and see with your own eyes historical figures, politicians, artists, athletes, heroes of films and cartoons, then you need an exhibition of wax figures, informed us “Sxodim Almaty”.
