Summary
The exhibition, designed in co-production with the Pompidou Centre, offers an unprecedented dialogue between its exceptional collections and pieces by Lebanese artists of all generations. Produced in recent years or following the tragic explosions of 4th August 2020, their works are tracing out possible paths to the future, between despair and gentleness, exiles and new anchorages.0Land of myth and legend, where five thousand years of history have been written, nerve centre of relations between the Arab world and the West throughout its history, Lebanon has passed through troubled times since its creation as an independent state.0On 4 August 2020, the blast from the explosion in the port of Beirut completely devastated the city, leaving hundreds of people dead and hundreds of thousands injured and displaced. Faced with the disaster, the Boghossian Foundation immediately came to the aid of the victims. The idea was born to present an exhibition at the Villa Empain in 2021 to give a voice to artists, widely affected by the event,0The exhibition explores the spectrum of the practices and reactions by artists faced both with these recent years of débâcle and with the event of the explosion and its consequences for the people and for the city, of which the ruined districts are so many testimonies.0How will it end? circuit offers an unprecedented dialogue between works from the Pompidou Centre collection and pieces by Lebanese artists of all generations, especially younger ones, produced in recent years or following the tragedy, and tracing out, between despair and gentleness, exiles and new anchorages, possible paths to the future. The ensemble brings together drawings, sculptures, installations, paintings, photographs and videos.00Exhibition: Boghossian Fondation, Villa Empain,. Brussels, Belgium (02.12.2021-06.01.2022).
