Geghamian Valery H. (1925-2000)
Born in 1925 in the town of Garni (Armenia).
After school Geghamyan entered Yerevan Art College, where he had his first meeting with Martirosov Saryan.
S1953 till 1957. - Work in the Arts Fund.
In 1964, Valery Geghamian founded and became dean of the art-graphic faculty of the Odessa Pedagogical Institute, where active until retirement, he worked for 21 years.
In each painting the artist visible struggle between two opposites: good and evil. The tragedy is inherent in almost all his works. Deep inner experiences for the fate of the Armenian people, who for years endured the Turkish expansion, resulted in a series of images of the paintings "Blood Wedding" and "Apocalypse". I think it including Odessa artist who was a teacher of very many artists such as Sasha Roitburd, P. Lykov, V. Ryabchenko, A. Manko, E. Rakhmanin, T. Furlet, G. Sultan , A. Pokidanets, Gumenyuk and many others One of my favorite artists.
