The art of the painter Gagik Manoukian originates from the roots of Armenian art and culture, but his independent creative activities also reflects best traditions of Armenian avant-garde, especially Martiros Sarjan's dramatic sense form and colors. Manoukian adopted with virtuosity the experience of modern art, including cubism, expressionism, and conñepts of world abstract art.
Manoukian's work shows a range various styles. Since the beginning of his career, he has been inspired by female beauty, depicting intimate compositions of female psychology in rich colors.
In his figurative and still-life themes, landscapes and lyrical abstract compositions, their colors being full of sun and most of all he likes to analyze light in a colored material. His style is unique for its fluent transitions color tones with inner contrasts, thus forming dynamic composition of painting.
