A Muse - A Visit to the Studio of Varujan Boghosian
In respo nse to our invitation to show his photographs, Hufshmid revealed his interest in beginning a series that would photograph, and document, the studios of known artists. He chose to take the opportunity presented by this show to begin that project, photographing the studio of Varujan Boghosian. The result is produced in a portfolio of 18 illuminating photographs of the artist's studio. Shown here individually and in portfolio.
