Aleksandr Abrahamyan on painting through faith and love

On November 23, the Pyunik Gallery at 3/1 Buzand Street in Yerevan hosted the inaugural exhibition of Aleksandr Abrahamyan’s paintings. A symbolic expressionist of Artsakh origin, Abrahamyan has been painting since childhood. Born and raised in Yerevan in a family of artists, he followed in his parents’ footsteps, dedicating himself to art. Abrahamyan is the son of honored painter, architect and designer Khachik Abrahamyan and Gayane Kafunts, an opera singer who graduated from Komitas State Conservatory. His creative world spans not only painting but also poetry and music. 

“I grew up in an artistic atmosphere. Family friends like Gagik Ghazanchyan, Mayis Mkhitaryan and Ashot Avagyan inspired me. I live and breathe art, perceiving the world through beauty,” Abrahamyan told the Weekly.
