Beirut Art Center is pleased to present Be…longing, a solo exhibition dedicated to the renowned Lebanese artist and photographer Fouad Elkhoury. It highlights his forty-year career’s best works, many of which have not been shown until now. From Beirut to Paris, from Cairo to Istanbul, and from other places where he has left part of himself behind, his images form a pictorial autobiography that extends across different cultures. Regardless of his subject – concrete skeletons of skyscrapers under construction, an armed soldier waiting behind a bag of sandbags, a fur drying on a clothesline – Elkhoury’s photographs convey the ineluctable passing of time.
