Vernissage: 10/05/2024 à 18:30

Du 11/05/2024 à 11:30 jusqu'au 10/06/2024 à 00:00

I am thrilled to celebrate the first anniversary of Lynn Modallal Gallery with “SANA HELWA - سنة حلوة” an artistic gathering on Friday, May 10th, from 6:30 PM to 9:30 PM.

Join us  for an evening filled with renowned and emerging artists who are dear friends of the gallery. Immerse yourself in a vibrant selection of both seen and unseen works, all centered around the theme of -Childhood-, to celebrate Lynn Modallal Gallery being one year old in the art world with music and drinks.


Featured Artists include Fadi ElChamaa, Mohamad Omran, Noemie Naoumi, Mohamad Kraytem, Semaan Khawam, Luana Bassil, Joelle Jabbour, Nour Choukeir, Jennifer Haddad, Aya Debs, Fatima Hassane, Ralph Khoury, Sama Beirut, Atef Khodr, Melinda Mouzannar, Nina Abu Zeid, Beirut Midnight, Francois Chahine, Ghyda Helou, Alexandre Ghoussoub, Too Many Lamps, and Cybelle Moutran.

The exhibition will run until June 10th.


Reflecting on the past year, I fondly remember our collective post-modern exhibition, “NOT TODAY”, which challenged artists to envision a futuristic world with elements of the past. One year later, I asked my artist friends to create or select pieces that represent their childhood, evoking feelings of nostalgia and joy. The aim is to create a playful and vibrant atmosphere, reminiscent of a playground for adults. Expect multidisciplinary artworks, including a video projection by Ralph Khoury and an installation by myself, guiding visitors through my artistic journey this year.

The  general curatorial theme for this last year was Anything but Today, creating exhibitions to help us  take a break from the present and ease our anxiety,


Fadi ElChamaa, our featured artist throughout the year, will exhibit a piece that delves into a new era of his artistic journey, exploring his psyche freely and vibrantly.


Choosing “SANA HELWA - سنة حلوة” as the  title may seem a bit ironic, considering the psychological challenges I faced while launching a business during the ongoing situation in the area. However, despite the hardships, the gallery’s achievements this year have been extraordinary; 8 exhibitions, 2 workshops and 3 collaborative events, and hosting and curating more than 20 artists.

This exhibition also serves as an invitation for creative practitioners—gallerists, curators, and artists—to collectively explore ways to sustain our lives through our artistic and cultural practice.

Art has always played a significant role in shaping my life, helping me navigate through difficult times and building my personality and culture. I aim to continue providing a platform for innovative and progressive artists with new voices that represent our present, infused with humor and creativity with more audiovisual experiences.
