Echoes from Lebanon is a Virtual Art Exhibition under the theme of Arts & Politics featuring more than 100 artists and 200 artworks.
The concept was created and organized by “I Have Learned Academy” in collaboration with “Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung”, Lebanon Office.
The purpose is to show how people expressed their feelings from the recent events and situations in Lebanon: hope, pain, love, anger… Many emotions were expressed through Art.
Due to the corruption, Beirut Blast, and financial challenges, many people and artists sublimated the suffering by making something beautiful out of every situation.
Echoes from Lebanon is a scream from Lebanon to the world, a shout to be heard echoing all over the world…
Important Disclaimer: The artworks and descriptions represent each artist by himself and do not represent a collective opinion from all artists or a personal opinion from the organizers and collaborators.
