St. Petersburg is this year dedicated to Sergey Parajanov. Film forum
will be held in the House of Cinema and Petropavlovsk Castle. The

Yerevan museum.
The halls of Engineers’ House of Petropavlovsk Castle were overcrowded
with visitors participating in the opening of the exhibition titled
"Sergey Parajanpv’s World". The event was attended by art critics,
visitors of modern vernisages and Armenian Diaspora representatives

works ornamented by feathers, shells and even watch mechanisms.

Yerevan. Exhibited items were restricted to their photos and great
director’s portraits, vesti.ru reports.
