A photographer defamed her country by showing a photo of village life in an unflattering light. Umida Akhmedova, was found guilty of slandering and insulting the Uzbek people. She was relieved to find out that the three year prison sentence wasn’t going to be carried though with.
The picture to the Uzbek people would look at it as in that repair work is being done in the rooms, and the children went in to them by childish curiosity. To foreigners, the pictures look as if and gives and impression that the children may live in the homes and conditions of them.
Other books and movies have used something to do with the Uzbek people but they were given grants from the Swiss Embassy in Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s Capital. A song about the 2005 crackdown on antigovernment demonstrators in the city of Andijon, is where hundreds of people died. Ms. Akhmedova was also taken to court with a case, but is breaks down to her singling out apolitical visual artist for the work she had done.
I think that this article is good for all artist to see. Because when they are traveling to other countries they should be very careful of what they use for there art.
