WHEN COLORS ARE MORE FORCEFUL THAN WORDS
The fifth individual exhibition of Arthur Oshakantsi,
London based Armenian photographer, opened at the
Yerevan Mayor's Office.
Arthur Oshakantsi lives in London for over 15 years.
He said that already since the 70ies he confronted the
concept of the dark and opened up for the light.
Though the life in London was not that easy, but even
the hardship gave its positive results. Today, the New
York Metropolitan Museum considers Arthur Oshakan the
founder of abstract-naturalism. He creates his pieces
in various styles, including the classical realism,
surrealism, expressing the harmony and the
sensitiveness of a soul. The above-mentioned
exhibition mainly included pieces created in the first
stage of the artist's creative life, as well as the
pieces he drew in Armenia this year, 80 pieces in
total.
