About the Artist
Ara Berberyan grew up in Soviet Armenia.
The son of a distinguished artist, and Professor of Art & Design, Arbe earned the praise for his artistic talents as a youth, and by the age of 12 Arbe had his first Exhibition. His paintings were sent by the U.S.S.R. on an International Tour, called "The World by Childrens' Eyes." This exhibition visited France, Italy, Canada, and the United States.
When Arbe was older he was invited to matriculate into the University of Art & Design in Yerevan, Armenia. Although it was complicated to find books from the west, he managed to attain and study those of the artists he appreciated most: Dali, Picasso, Titian, Rembrandt, and Klimt. As a scholar of art & design books on Klimt particularly motivated him.
Arbe earned his Masters Degree in 1981 and quickly began his career as a fine artist by accommodating government commissions for murals at the Yerevan Airport, theaters, hotels and other government projects.

These two organizations function as separate entities with their own distinct grant-making portfolios, but both pursue similar missions - to support innovative HIV prevention programs, efforts to eliminate stigma and discrimination associated with HIV/AIDS, and direct care and support services for people living with HIV/AIDS. Collectively, the two organizations have raised over $220 million since inception in support of projects in 55 countries around the world, including significant funding dedicated to programs in their respective home countries.
The Elton John AIDS Foundation has received support from many notable celebrities including Robbie Williams,Elizabeth Hurley and Tony Bennett.
