On July 12, 2022, the Mesrop Mashtots Matenadaran opened the exhibition DIALOGUE of the well-known contemporary artist Jean Boghossian, co-chair of the Boghossian Foundation. The exhibition was curated by the famous Italian art critic Bruno Corà.

The exhibition was unique because, for the first time, contemporary art was displayed next to ancient manuscripts at the Matenadaran. The core of both collections was the book, through which it became possible to create a bridge that connected the works of a contemporary artist with medieval manuscripts. Boghossian’s numerous works in the form of books dialogued with the manuscripts kept and exhibited at the Matenadaran and were presented harmoniously side by side.
