OPENING OF TWO TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS DEDICATED TO THE TWO MONTHS OF “FRANCOPHONIA” AT THE AGMI


22.03.2024


The first two temporary exhibitions, dedicated to the francophone areas of the world, titled “PRO ARMENIA: FOR YOU ARMENIA” and “THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN FRENCH ARMENIAN ARTISTS’ WORKS” were opened in the AGMI temporary exhibitions’ hall on 21 March 2024.

The opening ceremony was attended by Andrew Turner, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Canada to Armenia, Gabriel Chamberjian, President of the "Pyunik" Foundation, Artur Stepanyan, Director of the National Archives of Armenia, Suzanna Khojamiryan, director of the Yeghishe Charents Museum of Literature and Art, Maya Grigoryan, director of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia, professors and students of the French-Armenian Vocational Training Centre and others.

AGMI Director Edita Gzoyan welcomed those present. She noted that the Armenian people’s link with the Francophone family, especially France and Canada, has deep roots and is also connected with the position of the two countries before, during and after the years of the Armenian Genocide, recording and responding to the crimes committed against Armenians.

She then added that French and Canadian society, as well as political and humanitarian circles did not remain silent when faced with crimes against humanity, massive disruptions of Armenians’ lives and other rights and are not silent even today.

She then presented the exhibitions.

The “PRO ARMENIA: FOR YOU ARMENIA” exhibition presents the humanitarian efforts made by France and the French people directed at saving the Armenian population of the Ottoman Empire.

The exhibition titled “THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN FRENCH ARMENIAN ARTISTS’ WORKS” presents works by the French Armenian artists Levon Tutundjian, Zareh Moutafian, Jansem (Hovhannes Semerdjian), Asylva (Sylva Arakelian) and Jean-Pierre Seferian. All these artists are Armenian genocide survivors or their descendants and their works reflect the colours of international pain.

The exhibition titled “PRO ARMENIA: FOR YOU ARMENIA” will be open until September 15 of this year, while the other, titled “THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE IN FRENCH ARMENIAN ARTISTS’ WORKS” will remain open until April 15, 2025.
