Armenian sculptor and painter. Kotchar, studied under the Armenian painter Egish Tatevosyan (1870-1936) at the Tiflis Art School of the Caucasian Society for the Encouragement of the Arts (1914-18) and under Pyotr Konchalovsky at Svomas (the Free Art Studios) in Moscow (1918-19). During his early period his painting was heavily influenced by French modernism, especially Impressionism (e.g. De Profundis, 1919; Erevan, N.A.G. Armenia).
