more images In the works of the young sculptor Margarita Matulyan one
can feel the touch of humour, love and inexhaustible imagination. The
sculptor’s first private exhibition opened today in the exhibition
hall `Albert and Tov Bojadjan’ of the Yerevan Fine Arts Academy. The
student of the Fine Arts Academy exhibited the sculptures of 15 metal
statuettes the creation process of which, in the author’s words, is
connected with the everyday problems, joy and sorrow and
disappointments. Her father, Tigran Matulyan says that his daughter
has a gift and a wish to compose and create, `The most difficult is
not my task while presenting her works but hers while creating her
sculptures.’

‘Art has always been the cradle of the education and its development,’
says the painter Mushegh Mkhitaryan emphasizing the love of the young
generation towards Art. He thinks it important that the hearths of art
exist regardless of the political and social situation in the country
as they are the basis of the nation and the number one condition for
mingling the outer world. Mr. Mkhitaryan expressed his opinion on
Margarita’s exhibition, `I have known Margarita since her
childhood. She is a little crazy, has an observant, sound mind and
will go ahead.’
