NEW PHOTO EXHIBITION OPENS AT CENTER FOR NEW EXPERIMENTAL ART
`Face to Face with Armenia' photo exhibition launches
in the Center for New Experimental Art.
The initiators of the photo exhibition state that it
is a response to the French photo exhibition held at
the same center within the framework of the Year of
France in Armenia held in October-November, 2006. 18
Armenian photographers are going to participate in the
exhibition. The pieces included in the exhibition are
mainly portraits and self-portraits.
Eduard Palasanian, curator of the photo exhibition,
stated that the authors of the photos touched upon and
depicted the themes of not only personal and
autobiographic but of social character. "Some of the
pieces have solely and openly social character, while
the others are absolutely abstract. There are photos
that have quite personal content full of personal
symbols and allegories. The others use mirrors and
various kinds of photo techniques creating the
atmosphere of deceptive illusions and visions,"
Palasanian said.
Sargis Virabian, photographer who participated in 12
photo exhibitions, has represented a series of street
photos that reflect the life and social problems of
our city.
The exhibitions will be on till December 30.
