Louvre masterpieces to be exhibited in Armenia

Armenia's Minister of Education, Science, Culture and Sports Zhanna Andreasyan on Monday met with French Ambassador Olivier Decottignies to discuss deepening cultural and educational ties.

A key highlight was the announcement of an upcoming exhibition at the History Museum of Armenia in September this year, organized in collaboration with the Louvre. Over a dozen significant artifacts from the Louvre’s collection will be showcased in Armenia with full adherence to international security standards.

The minister emphasized the importance of the exhibition not only as a cultural milestone but also as an opportunity to strengthen Armenian museums’ professional capacities. Other topics included French language teacher training programs and joint cultural initiatives, including the Armenian Impressionism exhibition in Barbizon, France.

Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to expanding bilateral cooperation in education, science, culture, youth and sports.
