Painting of Ivan Aivazovski are wonderful. They show the beauty of the nature and the sea.
He created compositions depicting Armenian rural environment, landscapes, portraits and still lifes. He was also the artist of twenty unique frescoes. Roots of his painting went deep into Armenian miniature. The artist proved to be best in painting and graphic art, in fresco painting and scenography.
Ara Alekyan
The giant spider and the bear outside the Moscow Cinema are made entirely of what looked to be recycled metal—bolts, gears, pipes, springs, and other items all welded together. These sculptures were created by the Armenian artist Ara Alekyan. Alekyan sources metal from car repair shops and scrap metal dealers, turning what he calls “material which was considered useless in Armenia” into sculpture. As shown in the short film Born of Fire, Alekyan creates his works by welding together discarded metal pieces, wrapping them in paper, and then setting them on fire, giving the metal a uniform, burnished appearance.
Eduard Ghazaryan
The world renowned Armenian micro miniaturist Eduard Ghazaryan is considered the founder of the unique art of micro miniature. In the 1950s the European press was abuzz about an Armenian man who claimed to create tiny works of art smaller than the eye of a needle. One German newspaper reader had his doubts and sent a letter of disbelief to the artist. Weeks later came the reply, hand-written on a human hair. Eduard Ghazaryan has exposed his first invisible by the naked eye micro miniature works in Yerevan more than half a century ago. He created over 600 of such miniatures. Edward is a man of many phenomenal talents. Born in Yerevan he has received higher musical education and for many years was one of the leading musicians of the Philharmonic orchestra of Armenia. In addition to his micro-art and musical talents, Edward is an eminent violinist innovator, talented musical sculptor and an excellent caricaturist.
