Brutality-friendly areas to be significantly reduced

  YEREVAN – Driven by the increasing displeasure of violence taking place in public areas, on Monday, the Government ruled to ban traditional violence in the cultural areas of downtown Yerevan. Opera square, Republic Square and Aram Khachaturyan museum among other areas will be targeted as violence free zones by the police and other law enforcers. Police officials are reluctant to embrace the new restriction but vow to follow the reform sharply.  

International organizations saluted the law as a “step in the right direction”. In Yerevan,  European Council representative Zelina  Clifshots stressed the need to further entrench democratic reforms: “Armenia is moving in the right direction. The European Council definitely frowns upon violence in public places. We hope that this new reform will succeed in keeping Yerevan’s public parks and recreational areas free of violence. We also commend the positive attitude of police officers who have committed to reducing the geographic scope of violence and are further taking all atrocities to specialized indoor facilities. “

Quite recently Yerevan authorities finished the construction of Armenia’s biggest underground parking lot. Prior to opening Mayor Gagik Beglaryan said a brainstorming will be held to choose which of the 3 price options will please car owners most 50, 100 or 200 AMD per hour. After some intellectual blizzards  and cerebral whirlwinds the 200 AMD option was chosen to be most suitable for citizens.  Yet the main stakeholder of the new parking lot turned out to be “AGA” NGO.

Cafesjian's Museum May Face Serious Competition

by Narek

Gerard Cafesjian museum

Experience Gerard Cafesjian's taste for art and glass fetish

It all started with that fat weird looking cat. Then came the fat Roman soldier and the jumbo submarine, followed by a couple of very thin rabbits. Pretty much then I realized that Yerevan’s beloved Cascade was slowly turning into Mr Gerard Cafesjian’s personal open air attic, where he put the stuff he had no room for in his house.  I still didn’t know why he thought it was OK to place a statue next to a monument that stood there for 50 years. Yet I had no idea how right I was about the attic concept, until I visited the newly opened Cafesjian museum.

It was then when I decided to start my own museum and call it Narek’s Unbelievably Cool Museum of Very Modern Art, in fact you can all start your own museums. Because now I don’t see any reason why you shouldn’t.  Կարդալ ավելին Read more
