Art classes by Vrezh Kirakosyan: self portrait, bright summer colours and winter in the mountains

An exhibition of Vrezh Kirakosyan's works opened in Kazan on 21 December. The artist gave a masterclass for the visitors.

Born in Erevan in an disadvantaged family as the fifth kid and having become disabled in infancy, Vrezh has never studied anything and anywhere. Positive changes began in his life 4 years ago: he started a family, his daughter was born, he published an autobiography (the book was on the shortlist for the 2014 Russian Award) and had over tens of personal exhibitions.
