Ashot Avagyan (Armenian: Աշոտ Ավագյան; born May 20, 1958) is a modern Armenian artist who lives and works in Sisian, Armenia. The cornerstone of Avagyan's artistic work is the cultural heritage of his homeland Sisian and Syunik. Iconography of the Neolithic petroglyphs and Middle Age Armenian grave stones are present in Avagyan's works on canvas, while the ancient tales, rituals and their interpretations and ancient local monuments (Zorats Karer, Portakar, Ukhtasar petroglyphs) are integrated into his performances.
