Arthur’s work integrates many virtues that reflect in his artwork.
Today we experience a moment of infinite cultural delight with the colors, beauty, and expressions that the “houses” of Arthur K from various Lebanese regions present.

We are gathered to enjoy the beauty and charm of a talented Lebanese-Armenian painter’s artworks, which are an expression of feelings and emotions, and that offer deep spiritual enjoyment.
Artists are the apostles of the Armenian culture. In Arthur’s spirit, we find love, patriotism, and feelings of national identity which are qualities that grab art lovers.
Arthur K. (The artist)
“The Golden Houses” represent actual ancient Lebanese golden houses that restore and rekindle the fire of the glorious days of Lebanon in the souls of each one of us.
