Stretching Thoughts

Edición de la obra Stretching Thoughts

These visual narrative present the complete works of architect, painter, and sculptor Nadim Karam (born 1957), who has created large-scale art projects in cities from Beirut, Prague, and London to Melbourne and Nara. Karam spent a decade studying in Japan before returning to his native Beirut to open Atelier Hapsitus, which has become renowned for urban regeneration projects. The book features the artist's personal commentary on the adversity of the Middle East as well as a distinct narrative presenting his paintings and offering his musings on life, war, dreams, and the human condition. Engaged in an artistic battle against the causes of chaos and trauma afflicting the region, his work is at once poignant and provocative, but resolutely optimistic.
