Beirut, 6 December 2022 – Rebirth Beirut will launch its first photography exhibition titled “Lights of Hope” on 8 December 2022 at its headquarters in Gemmayze.
The collective photography exhibition will feature works by 8 Lebanese photographers: Jocelyne Arzoumanian, Samara Daniel, Lisa Terzian, Noir Barakat, Maroun Bassil, Eddy Choueiry, Jad Habib and Mohamed Mansour.
For the occasion, the Founder and President of Rebirth Beirut, Mr. Gaby Fernaine, said: “Our association has been working non-stop to light up our beloved capital Beirut. This exhibition will contribute to our efforts by highlighting the works of these amazing talents and by reestablishing Beirut as the cultural beacon of the region.”
The displayed artworks are defined by their overall common subject, which uses light and shadow to illustrate the Lebanese people’s hope.
The exhibition features images of various shapes and sizes, each of which captures and reveals the artists’ unique and group viewpoints on the “Lights of Hope”.
