Artique opened in 2025 on Northern Avenue in the centre of Yerevan, founded by a family of collectors. Years of collecting teach you what makes a work worth living with — and the gallery is where that judgement is put to work on behalf of others.

 

We bring together three things under one roof.

 

The first is contemporary painting. We represent a group of Armenian artists whose work runs from classical technique to boldly graphic, and whose careers reach well beyond Armenia — to the Beijing International Art Biennale, the LA Art Show, NordArt in Germany and the fairs of New York, Barcelona and Dubai. Alongside them we show international artists, among them the Armenian-born photographic artist Lilya Corneli, whose Tobeamuse project has been presented at the Albertina Museum in Vienna, and the Austrian painter Fiona Hernuss. Every artist here was chosen for the same reason: the work holds your attention, and keeps it.

 

The second is antique European painting, spanning a mix of periods and schools. These works are sourced one canvas at a time and chosen by eye — for quality of hand and state of preservation rather than for a name on a label.

 

The third is antique Armenian heritage carpets, principally 19th and 20th century. Kazakh, Quba, Sevan and other traditional weaves, chosen for the depth of their colour and the intelligence of their pattern. A carpet of this kind is not decoration. It is a document — of a region, a workshop, a family — and it will outlast everyone who owns it.

 

And there is coffee. Perfectly prepared Nespresso, served among the work or taken with you. It is not an afterthought: it is what turns a visit into a pause, and a pause into the moment when a painting finally opens up.

 

 

FOR COLLECTORS

 

For clients who prefer to look privately, we keep a private viewing room where works are brought to you and the conversation is unhurried — with coffee, a glass of wine or something stronger, and no one else in the room. Viewings can be arranged outside opening hours by appointment.

 

Every work that leaves the gallery is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Artique, carrying our holographic seal and stamp, and is wrapped in a cloth bag made for the purpose. What you take home is documented, protected, and ready to travel.

 

For those buying for someone else, we offer gift cards from 100,000 AMD, presented in wrapping made to be part of the gift.

 

We also offer framing and international shipping, and we host openings and gallery events through the year.

 

Whether you are beginning a collection or adding to one built over decades, you are welcome here. Come in, take your time, and let something find you.
