Our exhibition takes you on a journey through the history of Armenian modernist architecture, beginning with Alexandre Tamanyan’s Traditionalism and Gevorg Kochar’s Constructivism. We present the full journey of this movement, placing a special spotlight on Arthur Tarkhanyan’s visionary projects.
Alongside Tarkhanyan, discover the groundbreaking contributions of architects such as N. Buniatyan, S. Safaryan, H. Poghosyan, S. Khachikyan, S. Kalashyan, R. Israyelyan and many more who shaped the architectural identity of Armenia.
Immerse yourself in this era through detailed project displays, visionary concepts, 3D reconstruction videos of Tarkhanyan’s key works, and a captivating holographic show. This is a celebration of the architects and ideas that defined a movement.
