The \u201cComics Corner\u201d offers as the \u201cninth art\u201d, an overview from Maghreb to Asia via the Middle East. It illustrates how comics artists seize their experiences, such as those from Lebanon like Zeina Abirached, Mazen Kerbaj, Jorj Mhaya; from Tunisia like Nadia Khiari; from Egypt like Mohammed El Sharkawi; or from China like Zong Kai, Golo Zhao &#038; Nie Chongrui.<\/p>\n<p>  These young creations will also be represented at BEIRUT ART FAIR by several galleries including Sophie Lano\u00eb (France), Janine Rubeiz (Lebanon), \u00e9preuve d\u2019artiste (Lebanon), and Richard Koh Fine Art (Singapore)\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>  BEIRUT ART FAIR dedicates a space for the artistic creation born in the heart of the city and makes the walls speak revealing five years of archives offering a journey through Beirut, its tags and graffiti, and its performances in urban areas. Links with the hip-hop culture will be shown throughout the fair through the mix of images of VJs (video jockeys) in succession during which a performance is expected by the Lebanese group: Ashekman. Other street artists in the spotlight include Yazan Halwani.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recent times,
