Beirut is an excellent choice for art lovers who wish to discover what’s new in contemporary art from the Middle East. Thanks to its geographical position, the Lebanese capital acts as a gateway to the region, with internationally renowned venues such as Agial Art Gallery and a host of smaller galleries exhibiting works by Lebanese, Syrian, Iranian and Arab artists. These ten must-visit contemporary art galleries provide a fascinating insight into modern art and culture in the Middle East.
I believe you forgot Agial gallery which, in my opinion, is by far the best art gallery in beirut.
Yves,
I just copied the list from the article and Agial is mentioned in the introduction. Maybe the author was referring to the smaller galleries.
Just noticed that you actually reported an article theculturetrip.com . After reading the introduction, I agree that smaller upcoming galleries are the focus. Thx for reporting this lovely article.
