CONTENTS
GENERAL INFORMATION
5
For this 5th edition, BEIRUT ART FAIR has gathered 47
international modern and contemporary art & design
galleries from 14 countries that represent the works of
hundreds of artists. This massive art centralization allows
us to admire the diversity of the artworks and highlight
each artist’s unique contribution to the dynamics of artistic
globalization.
Exhibiting artists represent all of the trends of current
art and express themselves through painting, drawing,
sculpture, video, design or performance…
Confirmed and developing artists mingle and invite the
viewer to share their visions of the world, their dreams
or their positions.
Underlining its broad vision of art and of its current
challenges, the fair renews itself via new poles in line with
the evolutions of the art market: a wing dedicated to Indian
contemporary art, curated by Fabrice Bousteau,
a studio of engravings which is an invitation to create in situ
works, with Fadi Mogabgab and the support of BankMed,
the BYBLOS BANK AWARD for Lebanese photography will
surely unveil new talents, a Design platform, by Philippe
Trétiack which puts the young generation of designers in
the forefront with the contribution of BLC Bank, and the
«video projects» with a selection from Silke Schmickl …
This edition of BEIRUT ART FAIR reflects the wonderful
dynamic inspired by Beirut, this unrivalled city which
attracts avant-gardes, creates a ferment of ideas and of
encounters and remains, irrespective of the geopolitical
context, a forum open to the outside world, to the future
and to all cultures. Together with the fair, a new “outside
the walls” with BEIRUT ART WEEK #2 is organized.
An itinerary with the collaboration of Beirut Municipality
and Solidere, with monumental works displayed on the
streets and in the shops in downtown Beirut. From 17 to
24 September, BEIRUT ART WEEK#2 is making Beirut
beat to the rhythm of contemporary art and invite artists
to express themselves freely in the urban landscape of the
capital.
BEIRUT ART FAIR confirms the position of Beirut as the
cultural and intellectual capital of the Arab world, at the
junction between the East and the West. It is part of the
international fairs dedicated to art and serves as a window
for the ME.NA.SA. creation which is open to the world.
BEIRUT ART FAIR left its mark on the map of international
exhibitions and contributed to the international upheaval
resulting from the globalization of the art market and to
the movements of artistic communities.
In this perspective, we are opening the first edition of
SINGAPORE ART FAIR, which will be launched next
November with a pavilion of honour dedicated to Lebanon.
Our motivation is to build avenues between cultures,
between the Middle East, Europe and Asia. Our passion
is to promote an interplanetary dialogue, which is mainly
premised on art.
I would like to thank all the galleries that are participating
in the fair, the speakers, the artists, the press, the friends,
our partners and especially BankMed which is a great
supporter of our ambitions, as well as our “dream” team
without whom BEIRUT ART FAIR 2014 would have never
seen the light.

BEIRUT ART FAIR | CATALOGUE | 2014
Since its inception in 2010, BEIRUT ART FAIR established
itself on the international artistic scene with the vision of a
ME.NA.SA labelled art, which shaped its identity
and power of attraction.
In tune with the centers of interest of international
collectors, the fair displays the creation of this region,
which stretches from Morocco to Indonesia, in its wide
diversity.

Guest curator, invited to contribute to the
5th edition of the Beirut Art Fair, Fabrice
Bousteau wishes to showcase and allow
the public to discover the current “effervescent” art scenes. To that purpose,
he presents “Small Art is Beautiful Dharma», an exhibition that approaches
contemporary India through an exclusive
selection of small-format artworks created by Indian artists and available for
sale.
The Dharma wheel, the symbol chosen to
carry the message of this exhibition, is a
solar symbol guaranteeing all interactions, a symbol of stability and continuity
of the order and the uninterrupted circle
of the world in motion.
Within Indian societies, the concept of
dharma relies and is built at the centre
of the microcosm, and it links the human
beings with the macrocosm. The tinniest
particle is, at the same time, both the
product and the support of the world’s order. The smallest thing is as powerful and
as important as the largest one. Its imbalance could affect and even jeopardise the
harmony of the whole, and it could lead,
through a cause and effect phenomenon,
to the destruction of the universe in its
entirety.
“Small Art is Beautiful - Dharma” plays on
the harmonious interaction and the balance of forces: a geometrical and radiating
scenography design, inspired by the image
of the dharma wheel mandala, emphasises the complementarity or juxtaposition
of the artworks and showcases that the
impact of an artwork is not proportional to
its size and dimensions.
The invited Indian artists, renowned or
emerging, (re)present the mutations of
an art scene that never ceases to grow
and expand, to change, to shift, always
expressive and animated, both strong and
fragile; at the same time an active particle
and a powerful component of the world of
contemporary art.

Fadi Mogabgab presents
“Zaarura Edition”, the first
etching publishing house
in Lebanon presenting
contemporary Lebanese and
foreign artists. The workshop
is located in the heart of the
“Shouf” mountains in Ain Zhalta,
at Alia’s residence for artists.
Many techniques of engraving
are available: Woodcut, linocut,
carborundum, monotype, etching
etc... The process of etching
involves engraving a plate that
is designed by the artist; ink is
applied on the engraved plate
and then carefully wiped clean,
leaving only the ink held in the
lines. Then both paper and plate
go through a press. When the
paper is peeled off the plate, it
reveals a faithful mirror image of
the etched drawing. This inking
procedure is then repeated
for each print giving a unique
character to each piece. A limited
number of prints is made, signed
and numbered by the artist.
The primary role of “Zaarura
Edition” is to promote artists
by offering art lovers the
opportunity to collect limitededition engravings.

A woman finds herself confronted by her own image:
who is she, and what makes her a woman? As she finds
a black cherry that seduces her, she is forced to explore
and to finally take full control of her own body. Her desire
is aroused by an apparently insignificant fruit.

The mother is getting ready to iron. Enter the daughter
who places her hair onto the ironing board so that the
mother can start straightening it. The mother is taking
care of her daughter’s hair, a part of the body considered
as extremely sensuous within the Muslim culture. These
scenes symbolize traditions that maintain the system
through the shaping of the young by the old. Although attentive the mother is controlling her daughter’s body. The
face of the daughter is not shown, her emotions remains
hidden behind the mass of hair that protects her like an
opaque veil.

Zoulikha Bouabdellah’s brilliantly concise Dansons shows
in a single take the midriff of a woman belly-dancing
to La Marseillaise. It is a startlingly clear image of the
clash of colonialism with indigenous culture. The military
relentlessness of the anthem is in deep contrast to the
sensuousness of the body wrapped in the colours of the
French tricolour.

There is a camera. And a body. Both in motion,
meeting and observing each other, reflecting
on each other’s capacity to produce forms and
consequently a visual idea. Synchronisation,
then desynchronisation, frictions appear
that reflect the state of a world that is
characterized by tensions, obsolete systems
and preconceived opinions. Body Politics is a
programme consisting of 16 art films from the
Middle East, North Africa, South and South
East Asia that explores how contemporary
artists comment on current political and social
issues by means of their own bodies or those of
others. Ranging from video art to experimental
cinema, documentaries and performative
experiences the selection highlights how the
individual can react to the bigger and rigid
body of our globalized societies by exploding
conventional production modes and viewing
patterns. Through personal, ironic and poetic
approaches the artists invent a new visual
language and take us on a colourful cinematic
journey that reintroduces a notion of humanity.

the possible effect of protest and politically motivated action: however, the intended goal turns into its opposite.

Exorcise Me is a photography, videography and live
performance project addressing coming-of-age anxiety,
teenage alienation and the confusing phase between
childhood and adulthood. The title, Exorcize Me speaks
about the unease within one’s own skin and the yearning
to get rid of new-fangled fears and unfamiliar emotions.
The goth makeup, baby language, school setting and
uniforms are juxtapositions of reality and fiction, interior
world brought out to the exterior.

Taysir Batniji
Transit tackles the issues of borders. Taysir Batniji
presents a silent slideshow, made up of photographic
images, that he made clandestinely at border passages
between Egypt and Gaza. The photographs of people
waiting are alternated with black screens – metaphors
for emptiness and the passing of time –, reflecting the
difficult and often impossible conditions of mobility for
today’s Palestinians. The video addresses notions of
travel and displacement as well as the situation of being
between two cultures and identities. 8

France-Algeria / Les illuminés / 2007 / 1 min 27 /
Courtesy of the artist
In Les illuminés (The Enlightened), the viewer’s focus is
fused with that of a woman wearing a burqa, the video
artist herself. The viewer sees the world – the astounded
passersby she encounters on a moving pavement inside
the Montparnasse train station in Paris – through her
eyes, her obstructed vision. The video offers a radical
experience of otherness and isolation and demonstrates
that apart from being symbolic, the covering of women is
first and foremost of a material nature.
A Space Exodus quirkily sets up an adapted stretch of
Stanley Kubrick’s Space Odyssey in a Middle Eastern
political context. The film follows the artist herself onto
a phantasmagoric journey through the universe echoing Kubrick’s thematic concerns for human evolution,
progress and technology. It offers a naively hopeful and
optimistic vision for a Palestinian future contrasting
sharply with the actual situation of the Palestinian state.
In A Space Exodus, Sansour does finally reach the moon,
although her contact with Palestine’s capital is cut off.

Kuwait / Oh torment (Wa waila) / 2008 / 10 min /
Courtesy of the artist
Oh Torment (Wa Waila) is a surreal film based on an old
melancholic Kuwaiti folk song, whose words evoke a
trance of sadness. Monira al Qadiri used this aesthetic
as a metaphor for her film, interpreting it as a vehicle for
personal grief: the film depicts love lost, displacement,
gender identity and death in an extremely visual yet absurd manner. The artist personally played the main male
‘singer’, and all the roles of men and women are swapped
in the film.

Egypt / The A77A Project (On Superheroes and
Presidents) / 2009 / 4 min / Courtesy of the artist
This short, ironic film reflects on recent social changes
in an African megacity: Cairo. Two figures drawn from a
large-scale canvas by the artist are cast in motion via 3D
animation and morph into the ancient god Anubis. The
Lord of the Afterlife walks through the streets of presentday Cairo, past scenes of daily life, in what was once
described as “one of the most beautiful downtowns in the
world.” The film’s score is a mix of sounds drawn from
cyberspace and archival voice recordings: re-worked
open-source digital loops and samples of Egyptian
president Nasser delivering his famous 1967 resignation
speech.
Waheeda Mallulah
Bahrain / Coloured Photographs / 2008 / 1 min 40 /
Courtesy of the artist
Waheeda Malullah presents desires for liberty through
a stop-motion animation. A group of women posing in
front of the camera, alluding to a black and white photograph, turns color when primaries start overtaking black
conservatism. The artist presents a playful approach to
social values; restrictions and freedoms, aspirations and
their inadequacies.

Shirin Abu Shaqra
Lebanon / Sulayma / 2014 /
Courtesy of the artist
“Sulayma” is a musical jewel worth revisiting. The song,
is based on a romantic monologue describing the laments of a person being betrayed by the beloved one.
Here, I chose to liberate these poetic images from their
immediate meaning and elevate them to a more dynamic
one. Salma becomes a diva that has been betrayed by
herself and by the irreversible element of time. She does
not recognize her old self in the miror, and awaits death.
An old woman looking back at her glamorous young years
expresses “saudade”. A young one dreading her old days,
there lies the conflict.

It was the Lebanese
architect Youssef
Thohmé who once
eloquently affirmed
that it was the artists,
and particularly the
builders and designers
of our time who are
once again assuming
the roles of social
commentators.
In a country where
communities at once
mingle and clash,
history is something
of a heavy burden for
its people. Whoever
attempts to write it
faces inciting conflict:
opposing memories
are pitted against one
another, and create a
divergent pattern of
events. It is the job of
the artist, therefore,
to find a means of
allowing each side
to approach and
understand the other.
Khaled El Mays
Creativity espouses a way of thinking that
transcends common politics, not only providing a
means of envisioning the future, but of imagining
the past, rendering it acceptable, even appealing
to everyone. Designers, whose work is now a
great source of worldwide interest, are not exempt
from Damocles’ assertion that with power comes
responsibility.
As they twist their iron, weld their metals, hammer,
melt, saw, cast, crush and stitch, they are at the
helm of creating a new country, infusing it with new
blood, and forging a new destiny for it. It is for this
reason that every item crafted by Lebanese artists
is meaningful, its ostensible message as valuable
as its hidden one.
Renni Mackintosh-esque, yet
reminiscent of the Middle East, his
designs espouse the organic and
natural, with an interplay of colors,
topped with a hint of masochism.
Cutting-edge design?
To reduce a work to mere politics would be a
heresy, as would a denial of its importance. Far
from veering into the realms of the superfluous,
the very design of a table can be the portent of a
brandished sword or an outstretched hand. How
many discussions, how many arguments will take
place over this table? Designers do not simply
create objects; their hands preside over the
simmering tensions of this world.

Soft, gentle beauty, and a lingering

women in the Middle East and beyond.
Dolls and breasts in the form of
artillery shells or missiles? An alluring
enigma that captivates your attention.
Flirting with daintiness and the
burden of guilt, a cage is a symbol of
entrapment as well as a promise; a
delicate, volatile and poetic design,
bringing together calm and disquiet.
