ON THE WAY OF BUILDING 'GLOBAL VILLAGE'
AZG Armenian Daily #148, 08/08/2006
Exhibition
On August 4, the Center for Contemporary Experimental Art hosted a
unique exhibition of modern art. Works of artist from Iran, Georgia
and Turkey were displayed at "Art Without Borders" exhibition.
The organizers, founder and art director of CCEA Sonia Palasanian and
co-directors of the Department of Fine Arts Davit Kareyan and Yeva
Khachatrian, say that participation of Azerbaijani artists failed
despite the many tries for the last 3 years.
The exhibition features the works of 25 artists, 6 of whom are from
Armenia, 5 from Georgia and 7 from Iran and Turkey. The range of
exhibits included canvases, videotapes, photographs and installation.
The lavish opening ceremony was hosted by functionaries and foreign
guests. From exhibited artists only a Georgian was present. A
separate room at the CCEA exhibited art works that were that could
not be watched by children and sensitive people. It's impossible to
put all manifestations of contemporary art into the frames of one
exhibition. The meeting of the Caucasian artists and their neighbors
was a belated but a unique occasion. This was a good place for
the artists to rediscover and understand each other. Diverse and
creative peoples of the region are obliged to live and create by
each other's side. Though a small step, this exhibition is at the
same time big step to peaceful coexistence on the way of building out
"global village"
