HOLIDAY Magazine No. 396: The Samarkand Issue. Following a trip to Zurich, Holiday continues eastward and heads for Uzbekistan, specifically Samarkand. The writer Pauline Klein returned from her journey there with a brand-new piece, the director of the Tashkent Center for Contemporary Art Sara Raza shares her views in a lengthy interview about the new creative scene in Central Asia, Delphine Valloire tells the amazing story of the collector Igor Savitsky and - among other stories about local wrestlers, artists and artisans - the filmmaker Furkat Usmanov describes his childhood in the city, whose mere name evokes a string of readymade dreams made up of caravanserais, Persian bazaars and hazily drawn Silk Roads - fantasies that today must be compared to the reality of a fast-changing city and country.

Kindly note magazine covers may vary and we are not able to guarantee a specific cover at time of order.

HOLIDAY Magazine is an international, bi-annual publication based in France and written in English. Between 1946 and 1977, Holiday was one of the most exciting magazines in the United States. Renowned for its bold layout, literary credibility, and ambitious choice of photographers, Holiday portrayed the world like no other periodical. The premise was simple: send a writer and photographer to a specific location and ask them to capture their vision of the place without constraints. In 2014, after a 37 year hiatus, Holiday returned at the behest of Parisian art director Franck Durand. This new Holiday remains faithful to the essence, aesthetic and sense of journalistic adventure of its forebear, but in a format that also celebrates fashion. And true to its original concept, Holiday still sends contributors afield to produce a portrait of place that is at once intimate and timeless.
