Ašot Haas
1981, Moscow
Ašot Haas is the winner of the first edition of the Gallery NOVA Award - Glass
2007. Innovative exploration of new dimensions in glass matter in combination with
other materials, application of novel technologies for processing glass, creativity
and precise execution of his art-works characterise the work of this young artist.
He follows the geometric stream by applying the constructivist and minimalist ten-
dencies. He sparked attention with geometric-like objects immersed in glass which
he created by placing small metal particles in between sheets of glass and/or
using metal foil. The form of the immersed objects is ambiguous as it changes due
to viewer’s motion.
