Prunus Armeniaca/ An Intertemporal Narration Through Images and Sounds

Dates

29.07 — 30.07.2022

Description

Two separate inter-artistic projects: a photography installation titled Compositions and a musical performance titled Zruits I-II, which means Dialogues.

Compositions presents stories from the interwar period and historical moments of the Armenian community through 150 unique pictures from the archival photographs of the “Armenika” magazine, curated by Vangelis Ioakimidis. Zruits I-II is a meeting of duduk with classical guitar, a conversation between the traditional and contemporary Armenian music by Vahan Galstyan and Lefteris Chavoutsas, performed by singer Maria Spyridonidou.

Compositions and Dialogues take root in the same place and call attention to stories and memories, whole worlds that are brought to life in the shade of an apricot tree, a Prunus Armeniaca – the symbol of Armenia.
