September 27, 2014 The Cafesjian Center for the Arts (CCA) announces the opening of a landmark exhibition, Kochar: Challenging the Time, dedicated to the 115th birthday anniversary of the celebrated Armenian artist Ervand Kochar. Organized in partnership with the Ervand Kochar Museum as part of CCA’s Museum Networking program, the exhibition brings together a brilliant selection of works including masterpieces from Kochar’s Paris and Yerevan periods. 

Featuring thirty works from the Ervand Kochar Museum and private collections, Kochar: Challenging the Time offers a unique opportunity to experience the development of Kochar’s ideological and aesthetic world through the medium of painting, graphic works, sculptures and his groundbreaking form of plastic art “Painting in Space”. The exhibition focuses on Kochar’s evolving artistic vision, revealing how Kochar’s imagery went through a constant process of metamorphosis.

The exhibition, Kochar: Challenging the Time, discloses for us, once again, Kochar’s creative genius as one of the greatest artists of 20th century modern art.
