Chad Elias Bücher

This exhibition catalogue has been published with an essay by Mark Westmoreland about Akram Zaatari's artistic practice and his relationship with the AIF, a conversation between Chad Elias and Akram Zaatari, and a selection of annotated and illustrated collection entries from the archive by Ian B. Larson.

Chad Elias analyzes a generation of artists working in Lebanon who interrogate Lebanon's civil war (1975-1990), showing how their appropriation and creation of images challenge divisive political discourse, give a voice to those silenced and forgotten, and provide the means to reimagine Lebanon's future.
