LARISA KATSANOVA, age 44, is a photographer and curator who has helped establish the Harutyunyan Galentz museum in his home in Yerevan, Armenia. She says this photography project goes well with the memory of Galentz, who was himself an orphan from the Armenian genocide, and who grew up in an orphanage. She and her husband, Galent’s son, Saro, also a painter, are continuing to work with residents at Warm Hearth.
