A Culture of Memory

Zico House is not only a cultural space, but also a living memory of the artistic scene in Beirut. Since its creation, it has preserved the traces of all the cultural and artistic activities that took place on its walls or under its auspices. Some of these activities include projects such as “Beirut Street Festival” and “Al Mawsam”, which you can find in its archive. By clicking on this link, you will be able to access a rich heritage of documents, photos, videos, testimonies, reviews and articles that testify to the diversity and vitality of artistic creation in Beirut. This fund is a place of discovery, inspiration, dialogue and sharing between artists, researchers, students, art lovers and the general public. Zico House invites you to explore its history and to contribute to enriching it with your comments, suggestions and donations.
