SGBL participated in the 7th edition of Beirut Art Fair that was inaugurated on September 15 at BIEL. Beirut Art Fair has become today the must-attend international event in Lebanon and the region for artists, galleries and art lovers. 

Within this context, SGBL sponsored the edition’s major innovation, REVEALING by SGBL, a new platform entirely dedicated to the contemporary young artists of the MENASA region and creation under multiple forms: painting, sculpture, photography, installation and video. REVEALING by SGBL offers the 27 selected galleries the opportunity to highlight gifted and promising artists and to connect with a wide varied audience.

Commenting on this partnership, Antoun Sehnaoui, SGBL’s Chairman & CEO, affirmed: “REVEALING by SGBL is an ambitious and innovative project that allows to discover the incredibly gifted and promising artists we have here in Lebanon and the region, all in one place. We, at SGBL, are grateful for this chance to contribute to the artistic scene in Lebanon and the MENA region in general”.

Throughout its cultural sponsorship activities and partnerships with cultural institutions, SGBL positions itself as a strong advocate and supporter of culture and arts. The bank is present, since several years, alongside the major actors of the region’s artistic and cultural scene and gives a special attention to young artists and to the expression of their talents. 

Confirming its ongoing support to emerging talents and a new generation of artists, and allowing these gifted artists to meet the numerous and varied audience of Beirut Art Fair, SGBL aims, through REVEALING, to enlarge horizons and encourage the thinking around a bold and daring creation, that is booming in the region.
