    ARMENIAN GENOCIDE MUSEUM-INSTITUTE PRESENTS UNIQUE EXHIBITION - PHOTOS

    21:47 * 21.04.15

    The Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute has presented to the public
    its new exhibits and contemporary design solutions.

    The museum-institute's building was completely renovated in 2011-2014,
    which enlarged its exhibition halls by 2,400sq meters.

    Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute Hayk Demoyan told
    reporters on Tuesday that no budgetary funds were allocated for the
    renovation or exhibition.

    "All the work was done on donations by philanthropists. A total of
    US $4.5 was spent on the construction work," he said.

    Due to the collection work done over the past seven or eight years,
    the museum has 90,000 original pieces, which has enabled it to organize
    exhibitions in 50 cities round the world.

    Thousand new exhibits are displayed at the new exhibition. Among
    the exhibits are unique books, pictures, documents. One of them is
    Ottoman Turkey's a law on confiscation of deported Armenians' property.

    "The original document is in our museum, and we do not need to open
    Turkish archives. Another unique document deals with the presentation
    of a military award to Armenian serviceman Sargis Torosyan by Enver
    Pasha, signed by him. During the Dardanelles Operation Sargis Torosyan
    sank two warships and thus saved Istanbul. But his family was later
    murdered," Mr Demoyan said.

    Some exhibits tell about world mass media's reaction. A Danish
    journalist's article of 1911 has Talaat saying: "Either they or we.

    And If I come to power, I am going to resolve this problem by
    annihilation."

    "That is, as far back as 1911 Talaat announced his intention to commit
    a great atrocity. Anyone seeing the exhibition will never doubt the
    Armenian Genocide had been planned," Mr Demoyan said.

    The exhibition will be open to the public from April 25.
