A person of art born and raised in Azerbaijan remains forever connected to the homeland — even if destiny carries them far beyond its borders. Such is the case with our interlocutor, a talented artist whose childhood passed within the fortress walls of Icherisheher and who now lives and works in cold Finland. His canvases, intertwining personal history with the memory of his ancestors from the city of Shusha, are preserved in private collections, adorn company interiors, and are exhibited in galleries across different continents. AZERTAC presents an interview with monumental artist Chingiz Abasov — a cultural ambassador whose creativity reveals to audiences the beauty and richness of Azerbaijan’s national artistic heritage.
