Zaatari combines the skills of a historian, a curator and an artist. He is interested in salvaging and preserving the past, in challenging the perceived norms of history. ‘Diversity is the most important factor in resisting misrepresentation’ he stated. ‘Focusing on iniduality thus becomes a political mission.’ Akram Zaatari was born in 1966 in Saida, Lebanon. He lives and works in Beirut.
