Elibekian Family Art Exhibit at Gallery Z: A Celebration of Generations
The month of June promises to be a family affair at Gallery Z as it hosts an extraordinary exhibit featuring works from four generations of the Elibekian family. This showcase highlights the artistic legacy and diverse styles of Vagharshak, Henry, Robert, and Areg Elibekian, offering visitors a unique glimpse into nearly a century of artistic tradition.
A Legacy of Artistic Excellence
The Elibekian family's dedication to painting spans almost a century, beginning with patriarch Vagharshak Elibekian, born in 1910 (deceased 1994) in Tbilisi, Georgia. Vagharshak made significant contributions to the world of art, not only through his paintings but also as the director of Tbilisi’s Armenian Theatre. His works, celebrated for their depiction of traditional Georgian customs, architecture, and lifestyles, were honored with a retrospective at the National Gallery of Armenia in 2010 to commemorate his 100th birthday.
Vagharshak's artistic legacy continued through his two sons. The late Henry Elibekian, born in 1936 (deceased 2019) also in Tbilisi, graduated from Yerevan’s Institute of Art & Drama with a degree in painting. Henry was a multifaceted artist who explored acting, directing, sculpture, graphics, and design alongside his primary passion for painting.
Robert Elibekian, born in 1941, followed in his brother's footsteps, moving to Yerevan and graduating from the same institute. Known for his colorful expressionist paintings, Robert's work often portrays beautiful women and lively indoor scenes. His canvases have been exhibited in prestigious museums worldwide, including the National Gallery of Armenia, Yerevan Museum of Modern Art, Tretyakov Gallery, and the White House in Washington, among others.
The Youngest Generation
Areg Elibekian, son of Robert, represents the youngest artist in this exhibit. Born in Yerevan, Armenia, in 1970, Areg graduated from Yerevan’s Institute of Drama & Fine Arts in 1992. He currently resides in Montreal and teaches at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Areg spends his summers in Paris, painting alongside his father. His works are featured in various private and public collections and have been showcased in solo exhibitions across the globe, including in Yerevan, Montreal, Paris, Beirut, Boston, Brussels, Antwerp, Manhattan, and Dallas.
In 2008, the Museum des Maitres Artisans du Quebec organized an exhibition titled "One Name, Three Generations," celebrating the Elibekian family's rich artistic heritage.
