Beirut Prints

Beirut Prints brings together a group of Lebanese photographers in addition to a few photographers of other nationalities to present works on the seemingly simple idea of revealing the other faces of Beirut. This city can sometimes be violent and war-ridden, flaunt provocative singers and dubious politicians. But it is also a lovely place to live in, full of stories and nooks. And through the medium of photography, Beirut Prints has found works and hence photographers who do just that: reveal the bright and dark side of Beirut, its poetry, mysteries and ordinary things.

Beirut Prints works to challenge the perceptions people have of Beirut. Taking photographs of the city may not seem like the obvious way to do it, but sometimes images can go a long way towards change. This project also aims to encourage rising and talented photographers working in Beirut through providing greater exposure for their work and paying royalties.
