Painter Mariam Hakobyan opened her personal exhibition in Yerevan

PanARMENIAN.Net - Today, on September 2, painter Mariam Hakobyan organized her exhibition in the Artists' Unions of Armenia, displaying 140 pieces of art, the earliest dating from the 1970s. Here belonged landscapes, bronze sculptures, silver decorations and graphic works exhibited in different countries worldwide.



This is the artist's first exhibition in Armenia over the past 10 years, as she herself told a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent in an interview. "What interests me in art is the broad specter of themes, be it a branch of science, interrelation between people or rock paintings. But as regards humor, it has a special place in my art. Here one can see a hedgehog's image in fog, fairytale heroes and a sweet apple with worms peeping through its walls. Art should contain elements of humor and certain lightness."



Mariam Hakobyan received her artistic education in Yerevan Fine Art college (1968) and Yerevan State Academy of Fine Arts (entered 1974).Her small-size monumental sculptures have been exhibited in different countries, including Armenia, Russia, Italy, Greece, United States, Norway, China, United Arab Emirates etc.
