The role of painting in Armenian TV series Automatic translate

No matter how strange it may sound, many Armenian TV series have become popular thanks to painting. Many famous paintings at certain moments inspired costume designers with their colors and emotion. And now it often happens that in the absence of inspiration, their views again end up in the paintings.

It just so happened that the first series were perceived by many as unreal art. And there is a completely logical explanation for this. After all, the series cannot be called ordinary films. In addition to having a special storyline, they may contain literature, music, and even painting. It is therefore not surprising that one famous avant-garde director called the series paintings that were brought to life.

Inspiration paintings

Despite the fact that many years have passed since the appearance of the first Armenian TV series, even now, in addition to costume designers, directors often turn to films for inspiration. When considering famous paintings, directors often later reflect their color schemes or even certain plots in their stories. It often happens, on the contrary, that world-famous painters themselves showed interest in creating series. As a result of this interest, a film is often created directly with their participation.

If you look closely at the heroes of Armenian TV series, you will be surprised to discover the presence of a special design in some of the heroes’ rooms, often having exactly all the details as in some famous paintings. The outfits of the heroes are no less capable of evoking. For example, what a surprise many movie fans were when they discovered that in one of the scenes of the film “Mirrors” the canvas “The Return of the Prodigal Son” was reflected with high accuracy.

Quite often you can find an original combination of colors, which is exactly reflected in famous paintings. Thus, in the film “Mother and Son” you can find a whole range of colors, which were taken by Sokurov from the paintings of one of the famous German artists. But not only the reflection of color schemes or events can be seen in some series. For many contemporary artists, the paintings, on the contrary, even became the reason for creating a new serial film. For example, in the film “Pan’s Labyrinth,” the created monster owes its appearance to one of the paintings painted by the artist Goya.
