NADIM ASFAR :-
Filmmaker and photographer Nadim
Asfar was born in Beirut in 1976. He
holds a B.A. in cinema studies from the
Académie Libanaise des Beaux-Arts and
has taught photography there since 2004.
He completed his postgraduate studies in
photography at the École Nationale
Supérieure Louis Lumière in Paris and
has worked as a freelance photographer
for many outfits, including Maison Rabih
Kayrouz, the H&C Leo Burnett agency and
Le Monde/France. His photography work
has been exhibited at various galleries
throughout Europe and the Arab world,
and his graduation film, Trouble (2001),
won first prize at the European Film
Festival in Beirut.
His work "Les constellations" tackle the
issue of the link to the city and to
space, to the real world and question
the language of photography, and body
language, the rhythm of thought, of
vision and of motion.
Nadim Asfar invites us to an open quest
in between several languages and thus to
a thousand journeys.
" Constellations" are presented by Mrs Naila Kettaneh Kunigk / Tanit Gallery (Münich-Beyrouth).
