AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Armen Eloyan (1966, Yerevan, Armenia) is an internationally recognized artist of Armenian origin who lives and works in Switzerland and Belgium. He studied at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam and since then has built a career with solo and group exhibitions in Europe, the US and Asia, among others at galleries such as Timothy Taylor Gallery.

Praying (1994) is an early work on paper in which Eloyan approaches religious or existential themes from his characteristic distorted figures. The seemingly simple gesture of praying takes on a double meaning for him: between devotion and irony, vulnerability and estrangement. Through his free line work, strong contours and layered use of materials, a work emerges that is both direct and uncomfortable.

As in much of his oeuvre, Eloyan here balances between humor and seriousness. Praying invites the viewer to reflect on human vulnerability, faith and the sometimes absurd sides of our existence.

Dimensions (unframed): 70 x 97 cm

Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framing workshop, celebrating its 85th anniversary year. We also use restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
