Vahan I knew from 1977goda, he was one of the most amazing people I've seen in my life.
In the 13 years he completely bald, and began to paint.
Pictures drawn in 15-16 years were so amazing that no one believed that the author is a he.
I am the godfather of his son, Arthur. There are many different stories I can tell you about it, a surprisingly different.
For example: in 1977 I worked in the Yerevan city committee of the Komsomol and helped him, sickness, get rid of conscription. A month later he disappeared and no one knew of its location, and he told me that he heard some voices and his name is somewhere. At the end of 1978. I got a call from Moscow to KGB major work and began asking questions about Vahan. I told him that, no looking at the fact that he is not a member of the Union of Art. he is honest artist, not a parasite, and always participates in the exhibitions of young artists association. Mayor surprised and said: how is he able to participate in the exhibitions when he was 10 months ago, walking through the mountains of the Pamirs has crossed the border, reached Tibet and all that time lived with Tibetan monks. Chinese spets.sluzhby caught him and handed over to the KGB in Moscow. Had to get out of the Major realized that Vahan what is unusual, and a few days later called and suggested that we (the city committee of the Komsomol) vouched for him and he was released.
