Art for Armenia is a Plexus Gallery Online Exhibition to raise funds for the children and families affected by the current crisis in Artsakh.
Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabagh) is a small independent region connected to Armenia, bordering Azerbaijan and Iran. Armenians have been indigenous to this area since the 5th Century BC.
On 27th September, Azerbaijan, with Turkish military support, launched a large-scale and planned attack on Armenian republic of Artsakh. Armenians in Artsakh and Armenia, vastly outnumbered by the aggressors, are fighting today on their own for their right to live in their indigenous lands and exist as a nation.
In response to Armenia’s current situation, Brisbane based Plexus Gallery and Northern NSW artist Joanna Kambourian have initiated this online exhibition featuring both Australian and international artists, who have generously donated artwork in support.
The exhibition comprises artwork by Billy Shannon (Brisbane), Sona Babajanyan (Brisbane), Joanna Kambourian (NSW), Belinda Sinclair (Brisbane), Meredith Macleod (Brisbane), Dorota Lagida-Ostling (USA), Anna Kalachyan (USA), Suzon Fux (Brisbane), Lisa Kurtz (Brisbane), Miranda Costa (Melbourne), Nicole Barakat (NSW), Kareen Adam (Melbourne), Wayne Churcher (NZ), Rona Green (VIC) and many more!
You can view and purchase directly from the online catalogue of artworks at plexusgallery.com/art-for-armenia – the funds raised from artwork sales will be going directly to kovcasp.org, to support the most vulnerable and displaced families by providing them with much-needed support.
This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire artworks from both acclaimed and emerging artists whilst contributing your support to those affected by the conflict.
