The exhibition presents a selection of works never before seen by the public, offering an unprecedented look into the private and previously unexhibited creations of one of Lebanon’s most influential modern artists. The display features rare paintings, intimate stories, and archival pieces that have been preserved within the family for decades.

Marked by innovation, emotional depth, and a fearless exploration of form and color, Jean Khalifé’s oeuvre continues to resonate long after his passing. Today, his legacy enters a renewed phase of visibility, supported and preserved by the Jean Khalifé Foundation, which remains committed to expanding the artist’s reach both locally and internationally.
