"To like or love art is an emotional conversation. As important as your art is to you, more important is who you are engaging with through it."Born into a multigenerational family of photographers, Abedian integrates several styles of image design. He apprenticed to his father and subsequently earned a master's degree in photography from the prestigious Hamburg Academy of Photography. Abedian absorbed a myriad of influences and refined his attention to form, light, and especially color. His images reflect a focus on the intersection of technology and media in modern life.Abedian's work is further enhanced by his world travels. He is fluent in several languages and continually immerses himself in a variety of cultures. Originally from Armenia, he has also resided in Iran, Germany, and now Atlanta, Georgia, U.S. His influences for art, photography, and digital media derive from his multicultural background, his travels, and persistent desire to study and produce contemporary art.Abedian’s work has been featured in art fairs and gallery shows. His work is a part of private and corporate collections. CV1966 Born in Tehran, Iran1984 Studied Industrial Design at The University of Tehran1997 Master of Photography at The Academy of Photography in Hamburg, Germany EXHIBITIONS2022LA Art Show, Los Angeles, CA, USAPalm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Palm Beach, FL, USA2021Palm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Online FairArt Miami CONTEXT, Miami, FL, USAAffordable Art Fair, New York, NY, USA2020Art Palm Springs, Palm Springs, CA, USALA Art Show Modern + Contemporary, Los Angeles, CA, USAPalm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Palm Beach, FL, USA2019CONTEXT Art Miami, Miami, FL, USAAffordable Art Fair, New York, NY, USASeattle Art Fair, Seattle, WA, USAArt New York, New York, NY, USALA Art Show Modern + Contemporary, Los Angeles, CA, USAPalm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Palm Beach, FL, USA2018CONTEXT Miami, Miami, FL, USATexas Contemporary, Houston, TX, USAThe Business of Regret: War, Chaos, and the Rejection of Violence, Fresno State, Fresno, CA, USAMarket Art + Design, Bridgehampton, NY, USAArt New York, New York, NY, USAArt Boca Raton, Boca Raton, FL, USAAffordable Art Fait NY, New York, USA2017CONTEXT Miami, Miami, FL, USAPalm Beach Modern + Contemporary, Palm Beach, FL, USAAffordable Art Fair NY, New York, USAPublications"Henrik Abedian: On Aesthetics and Violence", Arte Al Limite Magazine - 2018
