In addition, there are Elebekian father and son exhibitions in France every three years. Areg's form of expression differs from that of the other painters in his family. His subject, whether set in the city or nature, is the everyday. Indeed, a few scenes of snowy Canada under a covered sky use sober restraint in the colours, which are gentle yet energetic enough to avoid being colourless. The white is broken by ochre, yellow, blue or very light pink reflections.
Nothing jars the eye, which can roam peacefully across the canvas.
His works also allude to Paris, making them easier to analyze. The Seine is an excuse to paint shimmering varieties of green mixed with yellow, with a tinge of pink emerging here and there. The sun is always present in Areg Elebekian's paintings, without dazzling, without being blinding. Joy and the gaiety of youth pervade his work. His works have a range that takes us from oil paintings with occasional pastel tones to the transparency of aquarelles, or a painting with greater depth, dominated by greens that resonate under a thundering blue sky.
