“Usually I draw in relation to my painting, what I am working on at the time. On a lucky day a surprising balance of forms and spaces will appear... making itself, the image taking hold.

“We are confident that the normalization of Armenia-Turkey relations can become the greatest input of the recent decades in achieving peace and stability in the South Caucasus. With this vision, we have agreed to move forward without any preconditions, not making our relations contingent upon Turkey's recognition of the Armenian Genocide. However, if, as many suspect, it is proven that Turkey's goal is to protract, rather than to normalize relations, we will have to discontinue the process.” IfsMovingProcessGoalVisionAchieveRelationSouthDecadesMoving ForwardRecognitionSuspectsStabilityGenocideProvenTurkeysInputAchieving PeaceArmeniansArmeniaArmenian GenocideCaucasus Author:Serzh Sargsyan
“What quality is shared by all objects that provoke our aesthetic emotions? Only one answer seems possible— significant form. In each, lines and colors combined in a particular way; certain forms and relations of forms, stir our aesthetic emotions. These relations and combinations of lines and colors, these aesthetically moving forms, I call ‘Significant Form’; and ‘Significant Form’ is the one quality common to all works of visual art.” WayArtSeemsMovingFormCertainLinesAnswersCommonEmotionQualityObjectsParticularColorRelationSignificantCombinationVisualsAestheticProvokingVisual Art Author:Clive Bell
