VLADIMIR ATANIAN

​

The constant desire to express the feelings, while Vladimir Atanyan is an artist of emotionally inspiring emotions and moods, makes him look for new artistic expressions and composite spatial landmarks.
He is concerned about the problems of human health in the modern world, the ability to go beyond the limits of his own content is another proof that talent and flexible creativity enable the artist to refresh the technique, which is now a combination of his two preferences, painting and ceramics.

​

Through fate, people have moved to different countries, including artists, for permanent residence. Vladimir Atanyan is one of them. In Armenia he was a well-known artist who created a number of wonderful works. Now he lives in the United States and in a very short period of time he continues to maintain his dignity and human quality without ever helping to build his own unique art world by creating exceptional works of art.

​

Atanian's affairs are now more than ever seen by us as responsible and dignified.
In his paintings, Atanian is extensively delivering a world-renowned artist, "The Visitor's Light Reflections 1998 Exhibition." Although his love and pride toward his homeland is great, Atanian is, first of all, Byron "a citizen of the world".

Vladimir Atanyan was one of the leaders in Armenia's sculpture and painting. He is the author of the best- known and favorite fountains in Yerevan. His elegant charming style comes straight from cubism, which best serves both in stone engravings, in bronze sculptures, and in small ceramic and bronze compositions.

Atanyan's works are multifaceted and do not stop capturing the viewer with their sudden and wonderful expressions.
The master makes the viewer to fall in love with what he likes and depicts. In the crossroads of the two worlds, Atanyan keeps on revealing the beauty lines and opening new treasures for art lovers from the roots of his private paradise.
He continues to create a miracle and everything that is presented in this book shows how the master has started and where his artistic quest is.

Talking about the bright colors and imaginary images of Atanian, Dr. Artem Harutyunyan writes, "Atanian opens our hometown's tricolor drama" and another critic, Richard Nathan, compares his works with Bulgakov and Marquez's "magic realism."
Many of his designs have become an inseparable part of Yerevan. Ani hotel interior, memorial Zeytun district, "Vard" fountain in Nork massage, fountain with constellations in the Moscow Cinema Square.

Atanian is one of the main factors in the artistic scene when working in the field of fine arts. It is his expression, emotions and content. Her artistic works are amazed by the diversity of topics, the diversity of decorative and psychological problems, the bravery of decorative and psychological solutions, the conventional image. In the multifaceted creative activity of this master, the effects of traditional national art and contemporary art and their mix are seen.

Some Armenian artists left their weighty reputation in the homeland here, in the United States.
Immediate influence with Vladimir Atanyan's works is sensual, movement in different directions, light and shadow, positive and negative. Then they come up with characters, romance, mystery, controversy, humor. His sculptural sensual character, the Cubist structure, proves that he is a true master of painting and sculpture.

The designs of Vladimir Atanyan's art, in particular, the monumental designs, are strikingly attractive to over 30 public buildings, Dvin and Ani hotels, a fountain in front of Moscow cinema, and a fountain of Nor Nork mass. They are one of the most prominent examples of Armenian art.

​

It's worth remembering Atanian's works both in the Homeland and the US. It is worth mentioning that the fountain band of Aznavour square, the Zeituntsy's tuff-sculpture, the Goran's sculpture, and so on are worth mentioning. Real happiness is communicated with his sensual world. The style of "magic realism" is characterized by famous art critics Richard Nathan, Antoinette Sulevan.

​

Vladimir Atanyan's art is right that he does not obey the word, but you definitely want to tell about it. It is a monumental sculpture and pottery, painting and collage, mosaics and design. It is the depth of the thought, it is a unique style created with the mastery of the master and talent.

Nina Yefimova, journalist,
"We and America" Russian newspaper, August 21, page 25

​

Vladimir Atanyan has found his truth in art in the value of his own pain and has taken away many corners of the world like his own cross, making it not only national, but universal.
Sona Van, poetess,
"Color of Love" article "New Armenia"

September 23, 1995, page 7

​

Atanyan has created his world of art, the world that is warm and warm, the world that reminisces rare dreams from which you do not want to divorce.
Atanian's character, besides talent, is his infinite diligence. Perhaps this is the reason why he has perfectly shown himself in all aspects of fine arts. Atanian's wide range of interests and diversity of art are the sculpture

of the "Goran" monument at Moscow Cinema, the fountain-hall of the "Armenian lifestyle" fountain-decorating the cinema square.
