French Press Release for Ararat
| The book which inspired
Atom Egoyan's controversial new movie Ararat
"This extraordinary book
passionately lays bare the tortured soul of one of this century's great
artists, Arshile Gorky. Tracing his childhood in Van through to his
flight to America, Nouritza Matossian vividly explores the sources of
Gorky's unique genius. This stunning piece of work is emotionally charged,
and achieves a rare alchemy of scholarship, personal reflection and
historical testimony. |

Listen to Nouritza Reading from 'Black Angel, A
Life of Arshile Gorky'
Read Excerpts From the Book
'A major biography . . . a love affair between biographer and subject revealed.'
-The Times.
| Black Angel, The Double Life of Arshile Gorky dramatises the story of the heroic Armenian American artist Arshile Gorky (1904-48). In a series of four monologues the author/actress adopts the point of view of the women central to his life: his mother, sister, lover and wife. The performance connects Gorky to his Armenian origins, and concerns the ways in which cultural traditions, politics and personal history are intertwined. It is accompanied by images and music. |
