The Beirut Art Fair 2012

Seaside Arena

Beirut Art Fair , in collaboration with Ginane el Bacho, dedicates a space for the artistic creation born in the heart of the city and makes the walls speak to reveal five years of archives. This exhibition proposes a journey across Beirut, its tags and graffiti, as well as its performances in urban areas. Links with the hip hop culture will be illustrated throughout the fair thanks to a mix of images realized by VJ César Kahwaji (video jockey) followed by another performance by a group of Lebanese artists: Ashekman. Other street artists in the spotlight include Yazan Halwani who has developed a unique new style by combining Arabic calligraphy and arabesques with urban western graffiti styles.
