The first monograph devoted to the Armenian artist, from the earliest works to the present day. Rafael Megall's paintings embody Armenia's new spirit: in his work, the modernity of composition coexists with symbols, signs and images deriving from ancient Armenian culture. From his contemporary point of view, the artist dialogues with signs inspired by reliefs from the ancient Armenian churches, therefore traditional figures of medieval bestiaries are woven together with universal themes, to attain a depiction that deals with the relationship between man and animal.
Includes an interview with the artist.
