Vardges Surenyants’s celebrated “The Abandoned One” (1894), a masterpiece of both his work and Armenian art, will be exhibited in Armenia for the first time, more than 130 years after its creation. The painting comes on a special loan from the Abilkhan Kasteev National Museum of Arts of the Republic of Kazakhstan. For the first time, three monumental works central to Surenyants’s legacy—“The Abandoned One” (1894), “Trampled Shrine” (1895) and “After the Massacre” (1898)—will be brought together in a single exhibition space, forming a unified narrative in three parts. Another highlight is the historic door of the Holy Apostles Church at Sevanavank—the very door depicted in “The Abandoned One”. On loan from the History Museum of Armenia, the original door will be displayed alongside Surenyants’s painted interpretation for the first time. At the heart of the exhibition is humanism: the individual, human dignity, compassion, memory and our shared responsibility to one another. Created more than a century ago, Surenyants’s works raise questions that remain relevant today, making art a space for human experience, mutual understanding and dialogue.
