Support A1+!Sculptor David Yerevantsi who has been living in France for the last 33 years opened his first work in Yerevan today. To be more exact, he re-opened his work created 38 years ago.
In 1967 David Yerevantsi who was a student of the third year placed his first sculpture in the crossroad of Nalbandyan and Toumanyan streets, “The great Armenian composer Alexander Spendiarian lived in this house”. The copper sculpture has been washed away by years, and David Yerevantsi has decided to make a new one, this time of bronze, at his own expense.
The works of David Yerevantsi can be found almost everywhere in the world, “I visit many countries, and sometimes I get surprised at how I find time to visit Yerevan. I love Yerevan as I was born here”, the artist says.
David Yerevantsi will return to France in a week, and it is not known when he will visit Yerevan again. But 250 of his 450 works will be transported and shown in Yerevan on the initiative of the Kentron community head.
As for today, artists, intellectuals, the Kentron community head, as well as the Defense Minister Serge Sargsyan participated in the ceremony. By the way, the head of the house-museum of Alexander Spendiarian thanked the latter for visiting them for the first time.
