    Recently, many exhibitions were held at the galleries of the Vanadzor
    Fine Art Museum. The museum represented over 10 exhibitions to the
    art lovers of the city. Seven dozens of pictures by three artists are
    being exhibited in Vanadzor these days. The art lovers were excited
    and encouraged, visiting such interesting exhibitions at their
    city. Khachik Gharabekian, Hrant Tadevosian and Nikol Aghababian,
    artists represented pictures rich in colors and emotions. They
    depicted the picturesque views of Vanadzor, the region of Lori. The
    three artists spend whole August in Ahnidzor and created together
    in the studio of Khachik Gharabekian. They opened the exhibition of
    their new works created in Ahnidzor on September 2.

    "It was really hard to guess that they can open new layers in the
    nature of Lori for the local residents in their pictures", Serge
    Baghdasarian, art lover from Vanadzor shared his impressions about
    the exhibition.

    The artists were inspired not only by the picturesque views of
    Ahnidzor, but also by the idea of representing their works at a
    joint exhibition. They aimed to celebrate 70th anniversary of Hrant
    Matevosian by holding this exhibition.

    Khachik Gharabekian said that in the course of the month they worked
    together they created paintings that had many things in common.

    "Hrant's absence in Ahnidzor changes something there. That's why,
    we tried to paint from our own viewpoint, including the worldviews
    of Matevosian's characters in Ahnidzor," Mr. Gharabekian said.

    "Everything is different in Ahnidzor. Hrant was different, too. His
    presence here is different, too. That's why people pay tribute to
    his literature here," Hrant Tadevosian explained the success of
    the exhibition.

    Nikol Aghababian emphasized the importance of such exhibitions,
    saying that they help to bring fresh air of the capital's cultural
    life to the regions.

    "We tried to combine our own feelings with the image of Hrant
    Matevosian's Ahnidzor. He created his works as a true artist. We were
    looking for Hrant in today's Ahnidzor," Nikol Aghababian said.

    The exhibition will last till September 20.
