Vachagan Narazyan"Entrance and Exit" - Oil on Canvas Symbolic Surrealist Painting 20152015
2015
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.
