SUMMARY:The Iconography of Catholicos' Vestments in the Armenian Medieval Miniature Painting
DESCRIPTION:The book is dedicated to exploration of historical origins and development of ceremonial vestments for the pontiff of the Armenian Apostolic Church-the Catholicos. It explores the dressing ritual\, protocol and the symbolism of it. In medieval manuscripts created in Armenia prior or in main book-making centers of the Armenian diaspora\, there are portraits of famous Catholicoi depicted wearing ceremonial garments. Those portraits are the base for investigating Catholicos’ vestments of the XIII-XVIII centuries\, uncovering their symbolism and discussing several artistic and iconographic issues of those illustrations. This book is aimed to specialists dealing with issues of the Armenian Church culture\, religious scholars\, historians\, ethnographers\, culturalists\, philologists\, and the general reading public. \n\n\n\n  \nSofi Khachmanyan was born in Yerevan. After graduating from school\, she studied at the Art College No. 8 in Yerevan\, attained the title of Master of Needlework Arts. Since 1988\, Sofi has lived in the United States. She received her professional education in fashion design and textile science from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in 1993 (AA degree)\, and received her bachelor’s degree in 2006 and master’s degree in 2008 from Cal State LA. In 2014\, she became a candidate at the Institute of Arts\, National Academy of Science of the Republic of Armenia. In 2019\, she defended her dissertation at the same institute on the topic “The Symbolism of Catholicos’ Vestments and its Iconography in Medieval Miniature Painting”\, which became the basis of her First book. \n\n\n\n  \nFor over two decades\, Sofi has taught courses in fashion design\, garment construction\, textile science\, and history of fashion at various higher education institutions in Los Angeles. In addition to teaching\, she researches and curates two historical collections in Los Angeles belonging to the Telfeyan families\, who were wealthy merchants from Caesarea. Sofi also collaborates with the Ararat Museum in Mission Hills through scientific consulting and practical work\, directs the Creative Hands Art School\, and is engaged in lacemaking and “Nuno” felting. \n\n\n\n  \nDay/Time: Thursday\, December 12\, 2024 – 7:00 PM

SUMMARY:Anna Kostanian: She Vibrates
DESCRIPTION: KOSTANIAN: ENERGY AS ART  \nLet’s embark with Anna Kostanian to the center of the galaxy\, to the reflection of the cosmos in a drop of water\, to the sun inside its rays\, to the center of gravity. The artist’s signature form is the primal understanding of energy released to all points outward simultaneously. Anna Kostanian releases\, explodes and envelops. She embodies energy and her art manifests it\, delivers it and\, most importantly\, records it. \nThe recent paintings by Anna Kostanian continue with her career-long embrace of the primitive\, the emotive\, the raw and untamed. And yet\, even with the liberated rhythm apparent in each work\, there is an unyielding order\, a ripple through both time and space\, a precise substructure that guides the artist’s brute brushwork. \nWhen her paintings are composed in her assertive dark chroma we see themes and feelings rendered before us. But in choosing white paint in some of this work\, the painter embraces the act of reduction. These white tones\, this absence of color\, this consideration of invisibility… it all conspires to construct an additional paradigm. She enters bold pictorial territory in the paradoxical absence of assertive delineation – the absence of color adds the ethereal to the possibilities of what is going on here. \nWhite paint is\, in the history of painting\, the additive to create softer colors\, the mix to brighten\, the dabble of reflected light. In the tradition of the rigorous modernist Robert Ryman and with the bold minimal freedom of the painter Agnes Martin\, Kostanian rids her paintings of anything but themselves. Abandoning color emphasizes the presence of paint\, of the artist’s intent to create rather than render\, to play god (or more appropriately\, goddess) and fabricate a new universe instead of subordinating wonder and awe to something prefabricated. \nThis exhibit highlights a broad swath of the artist’s oeuvre\, from the compact to the monumental\, from documentation of the temporary to the portable and permanent. Wherever paint is composed\, energy abounds and this artist belabors that unyielding fact to wonderous results. \n—Mat Gleason\, 2024

SUMMARY:Arshak Nazarian  Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Arshak Nazarian’s artistic journey began the day he was born on November 9th\, 1961\, in the vibrant city of Yerevan\, Armenia. Growing up in the household of his esteemed father\, the renowned Armenian sculptor\, Suren Nazarian\, Arshak was nurtured in an environment rich with creativity and passion for art. His formative years were spent absorbing the essence of sculpting\, laying the foundation for his future endeavors. Remaining true to his roots\, Arshak pursued his professional education in Yerevan\, first at the Terlemezyan Fine Arts School from 1976 to 1980\, and later at the State Fine Arts Academy from 1980 to 1986. It was during this time that he not only honed his sculpting skills but also delved deep into the annals of art history\, acquainting himself with the diverse currents of contemporary art. Following his graduation\, Arshak Nazarian embarked on a prolific artistic career\, marked by participation in numerous exhibitions organized by the Union of Artists of Armenia and the wider USSR. His work was showcased not only in his native Yerevan and the cultural hub of Moscow but also in international settings such as Panevezhis (Lithuania) and Khartoum (Sudan). In 1987\, Arshak became a member of the “3rd Floor\,” a dynamic group of young artists pushing the boundaries of artistic expression. Together\, they explored new avenues and shared their creative visions with the world. By 1990\, Arshak’s talent and dedication were recognized when he was admitted into the prestigious Union of Artists of the USSR. The early 1990s ushered in a period of significant change\, as the dissolution of the Soviet Union plunged the region into turmoil. In 1992\, amid the upheaval\, Arshak made the bold decision to relocate to the United States\, seeking new horizons for his career. In his adopted homeland\, Arshak Nazarian’s talent continued to shine brightly. His works\, characterized by their enduring quality and evolving style\, graced the walls of galleries across the United States and beyond. From New Jersey to San Francisco to Beverly Hills\, Paris to Moscow to Berlin\, his art captivated audiences and earned him a place among the contemporary art scene’s most notable figures. Today\, Arshak Nazarian’s legacy endures\, with his masterpieces finding homes in private collections worldwide and prestigious institutions such as the Modern Art Museums of Yerevan and Medellin (Colombia)\, and the State Picture Gallery of Vanadzor (Armenia). Residing and creating in Glendale\, California\, he continues to inspire with his boundless creativity and unwavering passion for sculpting. \nAgness Nazarian June 8\, 2024
