The paintings on display represent virtually all the major fine artists in Lebanon today. Ranging widely in styles and approaches, the works are a chronicle of various trends dominating the country's contemporary art scene. The fusion of a thousand-year-old culture with the freshest modern ideas is very evident in the show.

As part of the Meet in Beijing series of Olympic cultural events, the exhibition will entertain Beijing's art lovers for several weeks to come.
