    NEW EXHIBITION OF ARMENIAN FEMALE PAINTERS

    The Association of Diplomats' Wives will initiate a new exhibition of
    Armenian artists in the near future. The exhibition will be held in
    early October. It will include the works by 50 Armenian female painters
    belonging to various schools and periods of painting. The album of
    colorful illustration of the pieces by the artists and bilingual
    articles will be published on the eve of the exhibition. The pieces
    by Lavinia Bazhbeuk-Melikian, Armine Kalents, Aida Gabrielian, Knarik
    Hovhanissian, Lusik Samvelian. Sonia Balasanian. Karine Matsakian and
    other contemporary Armenian artists are included in the album. The
    Indian Embassy to Armenia and Mrs. Rekha Vohra, wife of Mr. Deepak
    Vohra, Indian Ambassador to RA, greatly contributed to realization
    of this initiative.

    Mrs. Nani Oskanian, chairwoman of the Association, and Mrs. Rekha
    Vohra informed the journalists about the exhibition at the press
    conference held at Armenia-Marriott hotel on August 16. Nani Oskanian
    said that the wives of diplomats participate in the initiated programs
    with great pleasure. Mrs. Oskanian also expressed regret that the
    diplomatic missions of their husbands do not last long. She also added
    that notwithstanding this factor, their cooperation will continue in
    the future, too.

    The exhibition is aimed to represent the identity of the Armenian
    women from creative aspects, revealing their ideas, viewpoints and
    worldviews.

    "We became more interested in the Armenian life thanks to the
    Association. We have traveled in Armenia a lot and met with very kind
    women and wonderful children. Armenia is experiencing a transitional
    period of economic development and we want to help," Mrs. Vohra said.

    "Hand in Hand" project initiated by the Association aims at helping
    Armenian women and children. While such cultural arrangements involve
    the artists in the social sphere, in fact.

    The diplomatic mission of Mr. Deepak Vohra, Indian Ambassador to
    RA, is completed. A farewell party will be held on August 17. We
    express our best wishes and gratitude to Mr. Deepak Vohra and his
    wife for especially warm attitude to our country and our language,
    in particular.
