Ruben Grigorian

Ruben Grigorian was born in Yerevan in 1954. After graduating from the Yerevan Institute of Fine Arts in 1984, he has exhibited his hyperrealistic yet surrealist paintings both internationally and in Armenia. Grigorian currently lives and works in Yerevan. His paintings, marked by their precise, hyperrealistic technique, often depict fragments of the human body in dreamlike situations, seemingly pulled from the artist’s subconscious. His work “ Objet #1" (1999), an oil on canvas, is part of what Grigorian describes as his "surrealist explorations of mimicry and the transformation of images."
