Armenian Centre for Contemporary Experimental Art

In a central location facing the popular Vernissage Market, this slightly down-at-heel arts center is the hub of the city's avant-garde, hosting concerts, performances and talks. Experimental art in a variety of media is exhibited in four exhibition spaces and often has political overtones. Yervand Kochar’s 1959 figure Melancholy pines at the entrance.
