On August 23, 2024, the Armenian Cultural Center of Hungary hosted the opening of the summary exhibition. The exhibition was dedicated to the “Parajanov 100” collage project created during the “Armenian Youth Camp 2024” in Hungary and to the works produced during the sculpture courses that lasted for more than five months at the cultural center.

During the camp, a master class on collage-making was held, where participants worked in groups. The workshop presented the activities of the renowned Armenian filmmaker, screenwriter, and artist Sergey Parajanov, as well as his collages. This year marks the 100th anniversary of his birth.

The exhibition also had an interactive component, during which another collage was created and added alongside the presented works.

The pottery class was conducted by Grigor Murdian. The camp programs were led by Grigor Murdian and Suzanna Hakobyan. The projects were carried out at the Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary as part of the ESC volunteer program activities.

Armenian project “In the Armenian Youth Camp”

Published

on

The Armenian Youth Camp is initially designed to encourage Armenian and Armenian-origin children and teenagers living in Hungary to meet and get to know each other. The camp’s goals include not only establishing connections among Armenians but also connecting them with their Armenian heritage.

Alex Avanesyan briefly touched on Armenian history, presenting the formation process of Armenian kingdoms, the importance of the adoption of Christianity, and other significant historical events. His speech sparked interest in the Armenian past among the camp participants.

The quiz organized by the “Urartu” theater of the Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary further connected the children with Armenian culture. Participants had to name or guess the names, origins, and histories of various items related to Armenian culture created in different periods shown in pictures. The project turned into an educational and entertaining game.

The workshop dedicated to the 100th anniversary of Sergey Parajanov’s birth, conducted by the volunteers of the “Armenian Cultural Foundation of Hungary,” Suzanna Hakobyan and Grigor Moradyan, sparked great interest. The workshop focused on collage art, presenting Parajanov’s works and the uniqueness of his art. It became a unique opportunity for the children to engage in creative exploration and to get acquainted with Parajanov’s worldview.
