The 75th Anniversary of famous film director Artavazd Peleshian
was celebrated on July 11 on sidelines of the Golden Apricot 10th
International Film Festival in Yerevan. A retrospective show of
Artavazd Peleshian's most popular films, including The Inhabitants
and The Seasons of The Year, in Yerevan became an anniversary gift.
"Art is the way to liberate yourself from your self. Art is a vague
reality that is as impressive as the reality," Peleshian told media.
Peleshian is the author of the so-called distance montage that creates
a magnetic field around the film. Peleshian arranges individual shots
and sound bites so that while no narrative or polemical continuity
is immediately apparent, an overall vision gradually evolves.
On occasion of his 75th Anniversary Artavazd Peleshian was awarded
with the Golden Knights Cross, the highest award of the Union of
Cinematographers of Armenia, as well as with the honorable prize of
the Armenian Cinema Academy - "Anahit." On July 12 at the Mother See
of Holy Etchmiadzin, Catholicos of All Armenians His Holiness Karekin
II will award Artavazd Peleshian with the "Let There Be Light" Award"
for propaganda for religious values and contribution to the world
cinematography. In 2012 the given award was granted to film director
Aleksander Sokurov.
