ArmInfo. A photo exhibition "The stopped instants of Armenia" of
Ashot Poghosyan and Rouben Bagdishyan, participants in a number of
international contests, was opened at the Yerevan State University on
September 9. The exhibition organized with the support of the Students'
Council of the Yerevan State University demonstrates the latest works
of the photographers with the images of amusing instants from everyday
life of various corners of Armenia and Karabakh.
When opening the exposition, Ashot Poghosyan pointed out that
popularization of Armenian culture all over the world should become
a priority task for each Armenian being more or less related to arts.
"It is wrongful that most of young Armenian photographers are looking
for the ways of personal fulfillment by means of photographing naked
or semi-naked girls at best",- said Poghosyan. He added that the
exhibition will last till September 16; afterwards it will be held
at other universities and rural culture houses.
Rouben Bagdishyan said that he tries to present the well-known place
of Armenia to the public in anew way. "Actually, trifles are of great
significance in photo art. When photographing, I first and foremost try
to show these trifles, which are very often hidden from inattentive
looks",- he said. Both photographers thanked Rafael Hovhannisyan,
member of the YSU Students' Council, for his personal contribution
to holding of the exhibition.
President of the All-Armenian International Youth Center Andranik
Nikoghosyan came out with a statement: "Your initiative is a
very successful attempt to popularize the wonders of our ancient
Motherland. It is impossible to deny that alongside with the
efforts aimed at creating a positive opinion about our country among
foreigners, very often we ourselves have no idea of the treasures
hidden behind the inaccessible peaks of our small country. Your photos
demonstrate these treasures in the best way".
Rouben Bagdishyan (1987) and Ashot Poghosyan (1989) have already
become participants in authoritative international photo expositions,
including World Press Photo and World Photo View. At the Ukrainian
photo exposition "Ukraine through the easy of foreigners" in 2009
Rouben Bagdishyan gained the first place.
