The Atlas Group
Posted by Fabio 5 March 2010
The Atlas Group is a project established in 1999 to research and document the contemporary history of Lebanon. One of their aims with this project is to locate, preserve, study, and produce audio, visual, literary and other artifacts that shed light on the contemporary history of Lebanon.
They have produced and found several documents including notebooks, films, videotapes, photographs and other objects. Moreover, they organized these works in an archive, The Atlas Group Archive. The project’s public forms include mixed-media installations, single channel screenings, visual and literary essays, and lectures/performances.
