This talk by Hélène Eristov presents on the several contradicotry roles in wall paintings in Lebanon.  

In this panel discussion, the notion of borders in contemporary art, as well as in the geopolitical and broader sense of the word, will be explored through the works of three artists based in Mexico, who are currently artists-in-residence at Beirut Art Residency (BAR).

Taking the Bekaa valley as a case in point, this talk by Lorenzo Trombetta aims to shed the light on the multi-layered panorama of perceptions, elaborated by various political, military, cultural, and socioeconomic entities.

This four-part workshop led by artist Abed Al Kadiri reactivates the medium of watercolor to explore neighborhoods in Beirut, as inspired by artist Amine El Bacha.
