Andranik Avetisyan

I am Andranik Avetisyan. I was born in Gyumri (The Republic of Armenia) on 28 December 1968. I am an Armenian artist, business man, collector of art works. The main subjects of my works are life, man, human relations, space, beginning, what is the art. I am really glad that I am the first man in the world who created a picture from a real spider web. I noticed the spider web in the corner of the window in my studio.Then a great idea came to my mind to create a picture from a spider web.And I began to study the life of the spiders and the structure of their web.After that I began to breed the spiders and to use their webs in order to create the pictures. (Andranik Avetisian (Ado) says: “Spider web, in nature is a picture of energy making a connection among all the objects in the universe“. You can see Аrtist Andranik Avetisyan's Ado works which are made of cobweb only in Gyumri's Art Gallery Cobweb. He is a founder of these cobweb works and the only artist in the world who creates works of art by a natural cobweb. He noticed the spider web in the corner of the window in his studio. Then a great idea came to his mind to create a picture of a natural cobweb. And he began to study the life of the spiders and the structure of their web....
