Close Encounters with Lebanese Art: Memories, Family and Other Stories Gregory Buchakjian Art from Lebanon
Close Encounters with Lebanese Art: Memories, family and other stories Gregory Buchakjian Art from Lebanon. Modern and Contemporary Artists, volume 1: 1880-1975 Beirut, Wonderful Editions, 2012 Edited by Nour Salamé and Marie Tomb Pages 308-315 One of my earlier memorable encounters with Lebanese modern art was a visit at the 1982 Salon d’Automne. In the late seventies and early eighties, my parents used to bring me at exhibition openings, but this one was very special. It was special because we had to cross the “Ring” from West Beirut to East Beirut, always a thrilling adventure. It was also special, as the venue was the Sursock Museum, and a museum had something much more exciting than the Ministry of Tourism’s glass hall, the Soviet Cultural Center or the Goethe Institute. It was finally special in its timing, taking place a few months after the Israeli invasion that brought to us the highest level of misery and devastation. Two things remain in my mind from that evening: The illuminated neo-venetian façade and one of the exhibited works. It was a beach view with a fleet of vessels bearing US flags. Any 11 years old boy would have been attracted by such a deployment of power, especially that a multinational force was at these times in Beirut and that we could see, live from our windows, a collection of US, French, British and Italian warships. My dad explained that the painter was depicting events that took place in 1958 (of which I had been totally unaware). In 2009, film director Ghassan Salhab was telling me about a film he was about to release, relating his impressions of what happened in 1958. -
