Razmik Pogosyan is an artist of many genres and media - oil, watercolor, pastel, papier-mâché, to name a few, and yet he also possesses an amazingly unique, and as Harper's Bazaar puts it, "richly hued" style of his own.
Mr. Pogosyan was born in Gyumri, Armenia. His fascination with the genre of painting began very early, and he was already winning awards for his works as a teenager.
Stylistically Pogosyan’s art is deeply personal: he has for many years explored a particular repertoire of themes, which reappear continuously in his work, regardless of what medium he may have selected, or of what scale. Some of these themes are religious and deeply felt, some by contrast are hedonistic; but they are all suffused with the singular humanity, which reflects the personality of their creator.
