Biography
Young talented painter Karen Karlenovich Danielyan, born in 1997.
Laureate of all-Russian and international exhibitions.
Personal exhibition of the Artist - May 2022 ("Art-Soyuz", Krasnodar).
He is 25. From such a short life period, a year went to serve in the army, and the rest to drawing and painting. When the boy was three years old, the family from Armenia, where he was born, moved to Moscow. Then the Kuban appeared on the map of fate, and he learned his craft already at the Krasnodar Art School. And in the summer of 2019, he did an internship in France, worked hard, was appreciated and even painted a portrait of the wife of the mayor of one of the French cities, who herself was fond of painting, acquired several of his works and offered to exhibit there.
The paintings of Karen Danielyan seem to hang in the space of silence, and such paintings are best viewed alone, they are intimate and even confessional. Only a tenacious, inquisitive eye can grasp such a thing; the idle public does not know such a thing. And if you peer into the landscapes, be it the same urban one, you can feel the breath of some kind of patriarchy in them. His studies are a direct legacy of the Russian classical school. They have both sophistication and grace of nature.
Danielyan's painting is bright and simple at the same time, and Karen's ability to feel nature - whether an object, a person - speaks of him as a thinking artist, with serious potential.
