Museum-Institute, told reporters on Monday.
The Paris Municipality will host a temporary exhibition dedicated to
the Armenian Genocide Centennial, on April 29.

Museum-Institute of Yerevan" exhibition will run April 29 to July 4.
"We are grateful to the Paris municipality for affording us such a
unique opportunity to present a special collection in the heart of
Europe. Europeans will be able to see the exhibition for two months.
The collection includes about 150 exhibits, which contain unique
information on each human tragedy. A collection of the Armenian
Genocide survivor Aurora Mardiganian has a unique place in the exhibits
presented by the AGMI, the originals of which will be displayed for the
first time namely during Paris exhibition. The exhibition involves the
posters of the silent film "Auction of Souls" where Aurora Mardiganian
played herself, as well as photos, personal belongings, releases and
other unique items. The film was screened at Salle Gaveau hall of
Paris in 1919," Mr Demoyan said.
The expenses associated with the translation and publication of
exhibition related four books were covered by ACBA-CREDIT AGRICOLE
bank.
The Jewish Cultural Center of California will host the exhibition on

it on April 16.

large exhibition entitled 'The Armenian Genocide and Russia's
reaction' will take place in Moscow, on April 20-23. I should note
that exhibitions have been held in dozens of halls throughout Russia,"
