Launching of “Beirut Again and Again”, a Book by Ayman Baalbaki

Ayman Baalbaki was born in 1975 in Odeissé, Lebanon.
He studied Fine Arts in Beirut and at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Decoratifs in Paris. He has exhibited extensively in Beirut and Paris, and in a solo show at Rosa Issa, London in 2009. Ayman Baalbaki lives and works in Beirut.

Painter and installation artist Ayman Baalbaki is one of the most exciting young artists to emerge from the Middle East. Bold, striking and bursting with energy, his work can be interpreted a multitude of ways: where some see despair, others see hope; where some see menace, others see courage. Beyond question is his feeling for his hometown, Beirut, whose history he explores again and again.

Ayman releases his new book: Beirut Again and Again in Papercup Store, Mar Mkhayel. You are all invited to the book launch.

Special Formula:Edited by Rose Issa, with essays by Michel Fani and Lutz Becker.
