Born in Beirut, Lebanon, in 1961, Wissam Beydoun received his bachelor of art from the Lebanese American University (LAU) with the Sheikh Zayed Award distinction.
Beydoun works with organic forms, creating abstract landscapes that celebrate the majesty of mountains and the overall beauty of nature. His recent oeuvre revolves around his relationship with his hometown. Experimenting with the art of cartography, he maps out Beirut according to his experiences, documenting the emotions embedded in this metamorphic city.
Beydoun has held several individual and collective exhibitions in Lebanon and France, and has participated in Sursock Museum’s ‘Salon d’Automne’. His work is featured in numerous private collections.
