"Art
is the most sublime mission of man since it is the exercise of thought
seeking to understand the world and make it understood," said
Auguste Rodin. The only imperishable accomplishment of human labor
and energy is Art.
It was some
six thousand years ago that Phoenician art first made its appearance
in Tyre and Byblos in the form of glass, bronze, gold, silver and
ceramic ware and jewellery set with precious stones. (One hundred
Years of Plastic Arts in Lebanon 1880 - 1980, Chahine Gallery, Beirut
1982)
Ever since Ennion
of Tyre, artists have followed each other without interruption on
the soil which is Lebanon, this land of sunlight, crossroads between
East and West, cradle of several civilizations and religions. It
is a land of a thousand legends (Adonis, Baal, Europa), the Holy
Land so often cited in the Bible, with its painters of frescoes,
its makers of mosaics, and its sculptors who, for example, created
the sarcophagus of Ahiram I, king of Byblos in the 13 Century B.C.,
a tomb with superb bas-reliefs and an inscription in that first
Phoenician alphabet. Lebanese art is indeed part of a long history.
(Idem, one hundred years in Lebanon)
