Presences, of Guillaume Toumanian
From March 14 to May 11, 2019 – Regard Sud Gallery (Lyon)
Exhibition curator: Abdellah Zerguine
Guillaume Toumanian paints: he does it with conviction, as if, in this ancestral and almost timeless gesture, the immemorial appearance of the visible were being replayed: its violence or its intrusion, its renewed miracle.

From October 6 to December 28, 2018 – Cafesjian Foundation (Yerevan)

Still There… , of Arzu Basaran
“From April 5 to June 2, 2018 – Regard Sud Gallery (Lyon)
Exhibition curator: Abdellah Zerguine”
This exhibition can be viewed without political or ideological bias, but with an open mind, aiming to illustrate the importance of painting in modern art. She bears witness to universal sufferings experienced in the ongoing flux of contemporary migrations.
Collages, of Gareguin Zakoyan
From April 5 to April 29, 2017 – Galerie de la Tour (Lyon)
Exhibition curator: Sylvie Aznavourian
Gareguin Zakoyan’s collages represent a kind of intellectual game and quotations, where the composition […] possesses its own texture and narrative. All of this contributes to the raw unveilling of a new semantic understanding of the objects that consitute the ordinary world and our lives.
Sculptures, of Ashot Gevorgyan
From March 3 to March 31, 2017 – Galerie de la Tour (Lyon)
Exhibition curator: Sylvie Aznavourian
The young Armenian artist Ashot Gevorgyan reinvents, within the forms and techniques of modernity, the age-old tradition of “minor” sculpture. His work stands out for the maturity of artistic reflection and the variety of prolific production.
