project presentation in Modern Art Museum Yerevan, June11-25, 2011, sponsored by the German Embassy in Yerevan
I will be presenting a series of urban images, in the beginning of which Yerevan was the main theme, but now since my two visits to Germany in the past two years (in 2007 I was invited to take part Kunsthochschule Kassel), I'm exhibiting the two country's cityscapes simultaneously.
This exploration I began back in 2004, when all the ever-accelerating changes to the cityscape, with all the new structures which were rapidly spreading out and defacing the environment we live in, was still a novelty to us all. Today people are attentively following international events, captivated by the "crisis", which has become a barrier for self reflection. People are feeling certain discomfort, in trying to live a wholesome life. The artist's mind is so muddled with political, economic and cultural garb, that it becomes difficult to present pure art. The question arises does art reflect (carry within it) all the current changes of the times, or is it a substance, which for the public becomes a source of contact, enabling bilateral dialogue between different cultures?
My great challenge is to provide the time and opportunity for people of different cultures, to be able to manifest the human beings in themselves, who are still able to reflect and disperse all.

The images displayed on this website by Haig
Tutundjian are from the series, Time Is Now
and Our Reflections In The Sky. They have been
photographed at close range, and through the
lighting and composition take on the appearance
of cosmic and somewhat surreal landscapes.
The series are aimed at raising the public’s
awareness for the ongoing campaign against
deforestation as well as the cleanup of the
environment and air pollution.
