Vachagan Narazyan’s art captivates our hearts with the creation of his own mysterious, intriguing yet classical world on canvas.  His paintings are hauntingly beautiful, whimsical and surreal, with provocative symbolic undertones.

The works of this “dissident artist” are among the most evocative to come out of the Non-conformist movement of the former Soviet Union.  His poetic and visionary style is simply magical. His subjects are widely diverse, often juxtaposing “Old World” images with “New Age” elements.
