Armenian sculptor Mikayel Ohanjanyan, who is a Golden Lion award winner at the Venice Biennale, has opened a personal exhibition at the University of Milan (UNIMI), according to Treccani cultural newspaper of Italy. 

Ohanjanyan is a young sculptor from Armenia, and he lives and works in Italy for the past several years.   

His two sculptures, which are displayed at the UNIMI yard, already have received positive feedback from visitors and critics alike.

“Ohanjanyan’s art touches upon the contemporary trends of art, but, at the same time, it does not interrupt the conversation with roots,” the article reads. “A painter who, as [Russian poet and essayist Osip] Mandelstam had written, is ‘from the country of screaming stones, Armenia,” by birth.”

The exhibition will run until March 19.
