Hakob Hovnatanyan, dir. Sergei Parajanov, Armenia/USSR 1967, 11 mins., Russian with English subtitles
Book tickets
Before embarking on the production of The Colour of Pomegranates, Sergei Parajanov crafted this exquisite short film honouring nineteenth-century Armenian portraitist Hakob Hovnatanyan, “the Raphael of Tbilisi.” Blending fragments of paintings, staged tableaux, and scenes of Tbilisi life, it stands as a poetic tribute from one visionary artist to another.
With an introduction by Anahit Mikayelyan (Sergei Parajanov Museum).
