Klappentext

The life and work of the talented Armenian artist known for his unique brightly coloured style

>Galentz's early artistic influences were drawn from the French painters who had settled in the Levant, most notably George Michelet and George Cyr. From these figures, Galentz developed a unique and vivid style, characterized by bright colors and emotional depth, which eventually garnered the admiration of leading artists and intellectuals. His work flourished during the cultural "Thaw" in the Soviet Union---an era of relative relaxation in the strict censorship that followed the death of Joseph Stalin. Intellectuals and patrons such as the poets Ilya Erenburg and Alexander Gitovich championed Galentz's art, helping him overcome the obscurity he faced during his early years in the Soviet Union and elevating him to prominence.
