Armenian Art by Norik, Repousse, Copper and Brass metal work on Historical and Christian Themes, Metal Chasing
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Norik Y. Astvatsaturov was born in Baku, Azerbaijan on December 22, 1947. He and his family were among thousands of refugees who fled Azerbaijan in the late 1980s due to the ethnic, religious and territorial conflict of Azerbaijan with the neighboring Republic of Armenia. The family settled in North Dakota in February of 1992 where Norik continues to make his beautiful pieces of art. For Norik, the interweaving of his Christian faith and Armenian culture gives him his identity. This identity is exhibited in his folk art of metal bas-relief work.
