Public programs

Join us for a screening of recent films by Ali Cherri, in conjunction with the exhibition A Taxonomy of Fallacies: The Life of Dead Objects.

Curator Mayssa Fattouh (TandemWorks) presents her ongoing public art commissions in Nahr Beirut and Karantina park, raising questions on the function, perception, and potential of public art interventions in a city like Beirut.

In this artist-led workshop, children will create a book inspired by the works in the exhibition Assadour: Landscape in Motion.

A Hitherto Unrecognized Apocalyptic Photographer: The Universe is the first in a series of talks organized by Jalal Toufic, Director of ALBA’s School of Visual Arts, in partnership with ALBA-University of Balamand.

The history of the town of Jaffa provides the background for Kamal Aljafari’s film, centering on his mother’s family at risk of eviction if they can’t find proof that the house they have lived in for decades belongs to them.

The films in this screening investigate the materiality of digital media and networks, from digitally generated images to high-speed network cables, making visible the power structures and mechanisms that shape our increasingly mediated world.

In this talk, artist Not Vital will present his sculptural practice, which ranges from the abstract to the figurative, and which often portrays ambiguous narratives that are connected with dreams and memory.
