Description from the seller
Armen Eloyan (born 1966, Yerevan, Armenia) is an internationally recognized artist of Armenian descent 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, including 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 an ambiguous charge for him: between devotion and irony, vulnerability and alienation. Through his free linework, strong contours and layered use of materials, an image arises that is both direct and uncomfortable.
As in much of his oeuvre, Eloyan balances here between humor and seriousness. Praying invites the viewer to reflect on human vulnerability, faith and the sometimes absurd aspects of our existence.
Dimensions of the work without frame: 70 x 97 cm
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition we have our own in-house frame shop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. 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.
