ARMENPRESS HOSTS EXHIBITION OF BRAZILIAN ARMENIAN PHOTOGRAPHER
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 21, ARMENPRESS: Armenpress photo-hall was
flocked yesterday by photography-lovers who made a unique journey
around Brazil and San Paolo that has a strong Armenian community.
First time in motherland, a talented photographer Norayr Shahinian
has brought more than four dozens of colored photographs. Yet unknown
to the local public he is undoubtedly one of the talented
photographers of Diaspora. His talent was praised by photo-reporting
service head Felix Arustamian, painter Vahan Kochar and others.
Norayr Shahinian and his father, Hrair Shahinian, who has also
arrived in Yerevan to participate in his son's exhibition, thanked
the present.
Shahinian has been in Armenia for a month now visiting many cities
and villages and metting with many people. He will go back after
completing his work in several months to unveil Armenia for
Brazilians.
Twenty-five years old, Shahinian is an architecture by profession.
"However I have been fond of photography since my childhood because
both my father and grandfather were masters in it," he said. "I have
had several exhibitions in Brazil and Argentina but an exhibition in
motherland is a touching event for me," he added.
Two of his works, "City View" and "The Lonely Tree" have won San
Paulo and Pan Brazilian photography awards.
