The world-known Armenian micro miniaturist Edward Ghazaryan is considered the founder of the unique art of micro miniature.
Born in Yerevan, he has received higher musical education and for many years was one of the leading musicians of the Philharmonic orchestra of Armenia.
He is a man of phenomenal talent.
Edward Ghazaryan has exposed his first, invisible by the naked eye, micro miniature works in Yerevan more than half a century ago, in 1947. An eminent violinist-innovator, talented musician, sculptor and unexcelled caricaturist, he amazed the entire world by his works. Each aspect of his life separately may serve as a biography of an outstanding artist, musician, doctor-ophthalmologist, and cardiologist or of a scientist.
His micro miniature works are hardly explicable and, large part, not conceivable for a human mind. Over the years, Edward Ghazaryan has created more than 600 unique micro miniatures. His highest achievement was the creation of a new trend — moving micro miniatures. Maestro makes his invisible micro figures move asynchronously: no movement is repeated twice. These works are unexcelled till now, though more than thirty years have passed from the exhibition of first moving miniatures.
Edward Ghazaryan is a professional, talented musician and violinist-innovator. He has revived the forgotten instrument of J.S. Bach «viola-pompoza» which came to life again after 270 years.
With Armenian unique instruments he has created a quarter called «Dvin». It includes a new powerful instrument innovated by Maestro with unbelievably rich sounds-stringed organ with 120 resonators.
The exhibitions of his invaluable works have captured the hearts of many around the world: in the United States, Spain, Yugoslavia, Japan, Egypt, and Russia. In 1983 the name of Edward Ghazaryan was mentioned 9 times in the Russian book of records «Divo» (analogue of Guinness Records Book).
During the exhibition in Los-Angeles, American people called the micro works of Edward Ghazaryan «the eighth wonder of the world».
Maestro hates wars. He has created a musical gun of peace, a unique gun that doesn’t kill, rather pleases music-lovers. On the musical gun, he placed 40 micro analogues of musical instruments of different nations of the world. Edward Ghazaryan plays musical compositions of Armenian, Russian and west-European composers on most of them.
In may 2010 Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin B presented Edward Ghazaryan with the St Sahak-St Mesrop order.
Edward Ghazaryan died on April 16, 2012. Источник видео youtube.com/watch?v=fN_WgFrHzXU
