Armenian artists

[zarajara]

From Suren Sarkisovich Safaryan got curious.
I knew him he was a likeable man, very polite, even though the Soviet view - was a fairly high-ranking officials in the arts.
Several years ago, the Academy of specialty painting finished by his grandson and namesake of the full. Just another middle name - Suren Armenovich Safarian, if Google only collect your name, it will just stuff (and there are many) about it, he wrote a rather avant-garde spirit. Married, too, for our students - it is an art critic.
But to my surprise I found on the network yet another namesake - Suren N. Safarian, his work was sold at one of the auctions - sketch of the head (1959), was written about him that he was "well-known Russian artist." It can be found here online (for subscribers). So there are three artist Suren Safarian. I should add that this name and this name in Armenia is not unique, but not very common, especially - a surname.

About SS Safaryan I wrote an article in 2003, again won and placed it in his diary.

In general, he was able to learn: there is such a special ability when the residual small jolt - and their own creative idea gets a new quality. He studied all his life - and then in Yerevan, and is already in the Institute.
