    Abstract

    Signs of Conflict exhibition traces the deployment of political discourse in visual culture characteristic of Lebanon’s wartime conflicts from 1975 to 1990.

    Initially produced in the Framework of Home Works IV (Beirut 2008), sections of the exhibition have since been on show at: the 11th International Istanbul Biennial (2009); the Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporaneo (Sevilla 2011); 3rd Thessaloniki Biennial (2011); Bildmuseet Umea University (2012); and Yerba Buena Centre for the Arts (San Francisco 2013).

    The exhibition is based on research I have undertaken for my monograph Off the Wall: Political Posters of the Lebanese Civil War (I.B.Tauris 2009).
