YEREVAN, June 11 (Noyan Tapan). Over 40 works of sculptor Tereza Mirzoyan, an honored art worker, were presented at the exhibition opened at the Painters' Union of Armenia in Yerevan on June 10. The works of her students Getik Baghdasarian, Vahan Tokmajian, Emin Petrosian, Mariam Hakobian and others were also presented. Tereza Mirzoyan had individual exhibitions in Europe and the United States. The monumental works of the sculptor are placed in different countries of Armenia, Russia, Kazakhstan, and small sculptures are in the state and individual collections of different countries. The sculptor also devoted herself to pedagogy, she gave lectures and educated several generations of art critics. Many of them are recognized sculptors today. "Looking at these works, I am surprized and amazed how the woman can create perfectly. Great art is presented here: its volumes are small but mighty," said Keren Aghamian, Chairman of the Painters' Union of Armenia, during the opening of the exhibition. At the same time, he mentioned that he looks at the presented works with pain, as only poor quality and tasteless sculptures are placed in the parks of Yerevan, meanwhile such great works are ignored.
