“Live by Loving”, an exhibition by Armenian artist and photographer Zaven Khachikyan, whose work explores compassion, resilience, and the power of empathy in times of displacement. Through an evocative blend of photography and fabric, Khachikyan reflects on the lives of families displaced from Artsakh after the 2020 war. Each piece intertwines the intimacy of personal archives, family photographs, fragments of carpets, and traces of domestic life, with artistic reinterpretation, inviting visitors to witness the endurance of humanity amid loss.

“Live by Loving” reminds us that even within fractured homes, love and warmth endure. The artist calls upon us to take part in this act of empathy, to live by loving.

The exhibition is organized by Golden Gate Armenian Film Festival with generous support of STROBIA Foundation

Location: Lightspace Gallery, International Art Museum of America (IAMA), San Francisco

The White House PRESIDENTIAL MESSAGE ON ARMENIAN REMEMBRANCE DAY

President Donald J. Trump has failed to acknowledge the Ottoman Empire killings and mass deportations of Armenians from Western Armenia as Genocide.

Today we commemorate the Meds Yeghern, and honor the memories of those wonderful souls who suffered in one of the worst disasters of the 20th Century.
