Abstract
Like many other photographers who started working professionally in Soviet Armenia, Gagik Harutyunyan largely taught himself on the job.
After a few years spent in various factories as a machinist, Harutyunyan made the radical decision to quit his well-paying job and devote himself to the uncertain career as a photographer. He began as a correspondent of ‘Komsomolets’ newspaper in 1971. This soon led to a job at the ‘Organisation of friendship and cultural ties with foreign countries’ (AOKS). This enviable position allowed Harutyunyan to travel extensively in Europe and even Africa. Many of his extensive photo-stories were regularly published in practically all the major Armenian journals such as ‘Sovetakan Hayastan’, ‘Armenia Today’ and ‘Garun’. He is one of the very few Soviet Armenian photographers to have opened solo shows devoted to artistic photography. In 1981, he began collaborating with.
