Artprotagonist 2015 in Padua, Italy

Artprotagonist 2015 Exhibition in Padua, Italy
Villa Contarini, Piazzola sul Brenta, Padua, Italy
Presented with my work An Amber Intrigue.
“Karapetyan’s abstraction leads the imagination to real landscapes using extended chromaticisms which build a main deep perspective. This author is able to encourage minds to distant wonders. The artwork is very color sensitive, varying from yellow, red or brown shades, creating an autumn leaf carpet sensation in the mind of the observer. It also carries a calm energy, as if it were a slow atmospheric movement.”
Curatorial Review by Sandro Gazzola, President of Art Committee
I am greatly pleased and honoured to announce that I am among 30 winners of the Artprotagonist 2015 – International Award of Contemporary Art. The jury selected my artwork An Amber Intrigue for the Artprotagonist exhibition in December 2015 – January 2016 in Villa Contarini, Padua, Italy which already was the location of the 54 international exhibition of art at the Venice Biennale – Pavilion Italia managed by Professor Vittorio Sgarbi.
I would like to thank the award and event organizers – ARTEFICIOlinea, an artistic and socio-cultural association which organizes and manages exhibitions, cultural events in Visual Arts, Music and Performance. ARTEFICIOlinea aims to go beyond the normal to explore the tendencies and new visions of a continuously transforming contemporary reality.
This initiative, including the international award event and exhibition, would not have been possible without prominent artistic names of the province of Veneto: Vincenzo Ciccarello, President of ARTEFICIOlinea, Maurizio Pradella, Exhibition Curator, Sandro Gazzola, President of Artistic Committee and the members of reputable jury.
