Description : Means of mass media in numerous newspaper and magazine publications about Edward Kazarian speak about his versatile talented art, characterize him either as a world-famous, unsurpassed micro-miniature, or as an eminent master of violin, a gifted musician, a skilled sculptor, an excellent painter and cartoonist.
Edward Kazarian (Ter-Kazarian Edward Avakov) was born in Yerevan in 1923. He graduated from the State Conservatory after Komitas (viola).
At the age of 16 he substituted the concertmaster of the symphony orchestra of the opera.
When the Armenian Philharmonic Orchestra was established in Yerevan, he became one of those musicians who were the backbone of the orchestra.
He played in concerts, and was awarded many honorable diplomas.
Working as a concertmaster for nearly four decades, he retired.
Since 13 years old he was engaged in violin playing, and at the age of 20 he was already a famous master. He has created hundreds of musical instruments – violins, violas, cellos.
Edward Kazarian – a violin master -innovator, constantly being in search, “revived” the viola of Bach, which was “silent” for more than 270 years, because it was almost impossible to play on it. Eliminating the errors of the master of viola in the times of Bach, Edward Kazarian made the viola a playing instrument, returning this amazing instrument to life.
His perfect play on viola admired millions of people in the U.S., and in many cities of Russia and Armenia.
Edward Kazarian created the only quartet of unique instruments called “Dvin”. String organ of the quartet has no analogue in the world, it is a fruit of unrestrained imagination of the author. Though other instruments of the quartet are classic, they have been created according to his drawings.
He has created the world’s smallest 7-millimeter violin.
The famous machine of peace (according to the figurative expression of academician Dmitry Likhachev) of Edward Kazarian became a symbol of eternal aspiration of the Armenians to peace. On the case of this instrument, made of high quality wood, 40 miniature, musical instruments of different peoples are placed. They are all playing instruments, also made of wood. The size of the smallest violin is 16 mm.
In 1947, in the House of Folk Art in Armenia his first micro-miniatures were demonstrated. This date was officially the start of his career of micro-miniature.
In 1957 Edward Kazarian won a gold medal and the title of Laureate of V World Youth Festival in Moscow. His exhibition of miniatures in the pavilion at the Exhibition of Economic Achievements of Armenia in Moscow attracted thousands of guests.
Among his works portraits of the world leaders – Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, were just amazing, strikingly similar to the originals, but made together on a half grain of rice.

Description : Galim Madanov (born in 1958) and Zauresh Terekbay (born in 1964), live and work in Almaty.
This duo of artists who invests both the field of visual arts (via painting, installation) and film, made from memory and imagination the heart of its work. The devices, often monumental, they realize are the result of pre-collection from inhabitants of a city or simple walkers. Madanov – graduated from film school and connoisseur of the history of philosophy and political ideas – and Terekbay – who studied languages and international relations – are archivists of memories or dreams of others, developing a form of conceptual art of everyday life not devoid of a political and social criticism. The Transgression installation consists of shelves on which are presented more than 300 small paintings from newspapers, magazines, or toys for use. Arranged such goods from a stall, these paintings represent symbols of our time. Presented in the pavilion of Central Asia during the 54th Venice Biennale in 2011, the work has been specifically configured for MAMCS’s spaces.

Description : A. Sydykhanov sydykhanov 2was born in 1937 in the village of Kulagina in the Kulagino Gurevsk region. In 1965 he graduated from the Nikolai Gogol Alma-Ata School of Art. He began actively concentrating on creative pursuits in the mid-1960s. For the following nearly 25 years Sydykhanov worked as an Art Director in the «Kazfilm» studios. He created designs for several well-known films, including «Karash-Karash» (1968), «Kulager» (1971), «Lyubimaya» (1975) and others.
Sydykhanov’s work from the second half of the 1970s and the 1980s is distinguished by its energy and expressiveness. When commenting on this period of his career the artist said, «What I’m drawing now, it’s my identity freed from the confines of school.» One of the most meaningful transitions for Sydykhanov’s artwork took place at the end of the 1980s, when he stepped into the limelight with his new conception of artistic expression. The tanba, an ancient ancestral symbol of the Kazakh people, was key to the new direction in his painting.
sydykhanov 3Sydykhanov’s paintings are characterized by an unusual multiplicity and tactility of painterly textures. His creations are woven from the sharpness of human emotions, uniting ancestral wisdom with the frenetic energy of his modern life. Sydykhanov’s paintings have been exhibited in many different countries, and he was one of the first artists whose works were displayed in the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C.. In his strikingly powerful artwork, Sydykhanov strives to overcome the inertia of consciousness, to break stereotypes, and achieve the impossible, composing his own «eternal melody» of goodness and beauty.
A. Sydykhanov’s works are located in state and private collections throughout Kazakhstan and abroad. A catalogue of the artist’s work will also be released at the opening of the exhibition.
