Suren Spandaryan

The Suren Spandaryan memorial is a bronze statue mounted on a basalt base in Garegin Nzhdeh Square in Yerevan. The full-length figure commands the public space with its upright stance and formal presentation.

The memorial was completed in 1990 to honor someone who played a role in the early Soviet period. The statue marks memory of a person whose life ended during the Stalinist era.

The statue marks a place where locals and visitors gather to reflect on important figures in Armenian history. People pass by and encounter a representation of someone significant in shaping the nation's past.

The square is easily reached by public transportation and sits in an active neighborhood with shops and cafes. The statue is visible during daylight hours and openly accessible, making it convenient for a quick visit while passing through.

Three sculptors, Tom Gevorgyan, L. Gevorgyan, and G. Harutyunyan, collaborated on this work as an example of late 20th-century Armenian sculptural practice. Their joint effort represents how monuments were created during this period in the country.
