Nasri Atallah:

One of my pet peeves about Beirut for years was that it always seemed to lack some sort of ambient artistic activity […] The city lacked a certain public art scene, pervasive and visible. [But] that has changed over the last couple of years.

I’ve also noticed the proliferation of indie art in Beirut in the last few years. Keep your eyes on Nasri’s blog as he will be surveying over the next few months the best of the best of Beirut’s artistic and music scene. I know I’m looking forward to it..
