About the Item
Vachagan Narazyan’s Entrance and Exit (2015) is an original oil on canvas painting that exemplifies the artist’s poetic and allegorical approach to spatial imagery. The composition centers on an arched passageway that emerges from a textured, luminous backdrop. Beneath the arch, a solitary figure dressed in orange seems to both approach and recede—mirroring the painting’s title and evoking themes of duality, transformation, and metaphysical thresholds.
Narazyan's technique is rooted in Old Master methods, utilizing translucent glazes and complex layering to build an ethereal visual field. Here, scraped textures and delicate tonal gradations contribute to a sense of spiritual resonance. A barely perceptible ship near the top reinforces the metaphor of journey, while the entire scene shimmers with symbolic undertones.
This painting is in excellent condition, preserved in a richly patinated vintage-style frame that bears signs of chipping and wear. It was originally acquired from Tryptich Art Gallery in Ukraine and has had one U.S.-based owner since.
Measuring 30 x 25 cm (11.81 x 9.84 in), Entrance and Exit is a contemplative work that distills Narazyan’s vision of reality as a liminal, ever-shifting space shaped by memory and meaning.

Vachagan Narazyan

"Lazareto" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Surrealist Oil Interior Painting
Located in Denver, CO
Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Red Shoes" (2024) is a surrealist painting of an abandoned hospital interior, with an explorer peering through a doorway, out from the hall. Just behind the debris and rot rest the spirits of the room, out of view from the explorer.
Nadezda is a painter, sculptor, photographer, and concept artist. Her artwork is focused on narratives carefully gathered from the hidden chambers of her imagination as well as live theater-inspired work with actors, dancers, and models. Like a quilt stitched of poetic realities, Nadezda’s mysterious world defies the mundane. With a non-linear creative process flowing between different media, the artist explores various vantage points in her creations. This dynamic approach inspires her mind’s eye to focus on the worlds within and evoke an uninterrupted, creative transmission which is then channeled through her paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, writing and film.
