In March last year was in Yerevan. The art Shahen Khachatryan suggested
Sunday, after a visit in Echmiadzin Catholicos of All Armenians Karekin II, to go to the hospital to Larick (Henry Igityan). When he entered the house, sitting in bed, leafing through the book, with both sides Cravath were tables on the same drugs were, the other was piled high with books and papers.
I last saw him in November 2008, the restaurant we ate with him and khinkali together drank a bottle of vodka (I did not know that he is seriously, ill) and spoke on various topics, but his illness, only then, when his driver Karlen drove me home said that he was terminally ill.
He waited Shagena, but when he saw me a little confused, and in our eyes there were tears. I handed him the wishes of Catholicos of his recovery, this he said that he hoped to open a museum Arshile Gorky to make a brilliant speech. He is, after two operations was very exhausted. A few minutes later he stood up, sat down and offered to discuss the list of artists and paintings that will be involved in the dog show in the autumn of Armenian artists in Moscow, organized by the Ministry of Culture of Armenia and Russia. At first I thought he was joking, but when I saw Shahen got lists its version, and sat down, I realized that they were both seriously preparing for this event and get together to come to Moscow. We are almost half an hour discussing, arguing, even offended Shagena (he was always opposed to the avant-garde), and then laughed, I drank a glass of brandy and agreed that the fall in Moscow, after the opening of the exhibition will fill ourselves with three well. When they came Shahen said that the doctors more than two months of life, he's not allowed. I felt terribly sad and I was hoping deep down that such an energy and belief in their own strength, he will make this dog show, but in May of m-CE in Los Angeles learned that it is not. Sorry ...!
