Choghakate Kazarian

Choghakate Kazarian joined Atamian Hovsepian Curatorial Practice’s newly established advisory committee in March of 2025.
​
In this capacity Kazarian will help AHCP select its annual artist-in-resiendece as well as advise the practice on upcoming exhibitions and artist representations. Kazarian, who specializes in modern and contemporary art, holds an MA in Art History from the École du Louvre (Paris), an MA in philosophy from La Sorbonne, and a PhD in Art History from London’s renowned Courtauld Institute of Art, a training ground of sorts for great curators. Despite being barely 40 years old, she has already held positions as a curator at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris and has curated exhibitions on leading contemporary artists Lucio Fontana, Piero Manzoni, Karel Appel, and Henry Darger. She has also written the catalogues which accompany these exhibitions, as well as essays on postwar, contemporary, and outsider art.
