    HRAYR BAZE: MY GOAL IS TO FAMILIARIZE WORLD WITH ARMENIA THROUGH PHOTOS

    Noyan Tapan
    Oct 24, 2008

    YEREVAN, OCTOBER 24, ARMENIANS TODAY - NOYAN TAPAN. The Armenian
    Canadian photographer Hrayr Baze Khacherian presented his photo
    exhibition "Armenia Through the Eyes of Baze" to residents of Yerevan
    on October 21. The photographer captures inimitably and spreads
    Armenian cultural values such as monasteries, church complexes,
    monuments and in general Armenian nature.

    More than 60 photos taken during three helicopter flights feature
    valuable monuments of Armenian culture, various monasteries, churches,
    Lake Sevan, Mount Aragats, nice-looking sites of the country's nature,
    as well as historic monuments in Iran and Turkey whose photos were
    taken from border zones.

    According to the author, he has taken these photos over the past
    two years.

    Prior to that he photographed numerous monuments and churches in
    Western Armenia. He has released six photo albums.

    "The primary goal of my photos is to familiarize the world with Armenia
    through photos, to make our culture recognizable and disseminate it
    throughout the world," he pointed out. In his words, taking photos from
    a helicopter is a difficukt task not only in terms of photographing
    but also obtaining a helicopter and getting permission to take photos
    from it. The heads of the RA Ministry of Defence have assisted Hrayr
    Baze in this issue both in the past and now.
