Siravyan’s Parajanov

 The exhibition "Siravyan's Parajanov" is dedicated to Henrik Siravyan's 95th and Sergey Parajanov's 100th birth anniversaries.

The exhibition also embraces artworks from the film director’s museum collection, which make “Siravyanesque” character of Parajanov more comprehensive.

The great film director, who lived his life in a unique way and turned it into art, faced the difficulties of life, imprisonment, persecutions, and acquired the image of a fantastic hero in Siravyan’s works. The thematic paintings depict Parajanov in an imaginary colorful world, where everything is original and beautiful, and the center of the world is himself, the MAN-HOLIDAY...
