CPS 54th Venice Biennale Project – Beirut Talk Trailer
‘The ownership and the status of Lebanese history’ is a performative theoretical research project consisting of three public performances – In Beirut, Messina and Venice
The research performances will form the theoretical base for the 52 min investigative video documentary about the research process and restitution attempt of artworks and artifacts whose stay in Lebanon draws a blank in their provenance description. Artworks such as Guercino’s ‘Samson Captured by the Philistines’, presently part of the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art’s collection, for instance.
