15:32 - 14.05.11
An exhibition featuring paintings and sculptures by contemporary
Armenian artist Hakob Hakobyan has opened in the Cafesjian Center for
the Arts.
The expositions include works representing both the earliest and much
later periods of Hakobyan's creative life, the acting chief executive
of the center, Vahagn Mahrabyan, told Tert.am.
"We decided to open the museum week with an exhibition featuring the
works of the live legend of the Armenian fine arts," he said.
Speaking of the great artist's masterpieces, Mahrabyan gave special
attention to his marble sculptures, lay figures and tools,
characterizing them as unique symbols of art, offering interesting and
up-to-date solutions.
Speaking to Tert.am, Director of the Center's Marketing and Public
Relations Department Anna Simonyan referred to the artist's
philosophy, reflecting delicate and sharp humor through symbols.
"The paintings representing the Love Park series reflect different
perceptions through the diversity of colors and postures. The
contrapositions of love and struggle, life and death impart a profound
meaning to his works, adding in the meantime a special wittiness."
The exhibition will run through August 14.
Entrance will be free until Saturday midnight and on Sunday.
