RA President expressed his condolences on the occasion of honored art critic Henrik Igityan’s death.
In his condolence letter on the occasion of Mr. Igityan’s death, President Serzh Sargsyan says:
“Henrik Igityan was a unique personality in contemporary Armenian art; he was one of the pillars of Armenian culture. In all his initiatives, he was a pioneer who managed to overcome any difficulty seeming insurmountable to others. Showing the truth and beauty, he managed to prove that a patriot and man of art does not recognize any obstacle.
Henrik found that any person considering himself an intellectual should always be in a leading position. Such was his personality both as a public-political figure and a man of art. The Contemporary Art Museum founded by the great master promoted the development of our art and his aesthetic centre became a unique kind of institution all over the world. The cultural centers founded by Igityan continue advocating art without conventionalities.
