Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Azat Pogosian

France

Azat Pogosian was born on July 29, 1961 in a small, isolated village in Armenia, although his birth was officially registered 34 days later on September 1, 1961. His childhood was marked by a move at the age of [...]

The school years remained in his memory as a boring time, mainly due to the ideological indoctrination of the Soviet era. Teachers were often seen as authoritarian and conservative figures. However, Azat found his escape in the drawing class and in wilderness adventures with his friends. His memories of this time also include reading the book "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", which fueled his desire to live a life as adventurous as the main character.

At the age of 18, he was called up for compulsory military service in Russia, where he served for two years in the Red Army.

In 1981, he returned to Armenia and continued his studies at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Pedagogical University. He graduated as a Fine Arts Teacher five years later and taught at the Yerevan High School of Fine Arts for two years. Subsequently, he worked as a graphic designer in an advertising agency.

In 1991, Azat Pogosian left Armenia for France, where he settled in Paris. Since 2007, he has lived in Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, where he devotes himself intensely to painting, photography and video. His artistic journey reflects a personal and creative journey that has been shaped by his life experience in Armenia, Russia and France.
