Kardash Onnig

Born in Zahleh, Lebanon, in 1941, Kardash Onnig escaped the Armenian fratricide of 1958, which was being waged in the streets of Beirut, by immigrating to New York. After becoming a driving force in the emerging field of multimedia in the 1960s, he left the corporate world and eventually settled down in upstate New York, where he built his home and studio.\
