FLAG ART – UK EMBASSY VIP CELEBRATION DAY - BEIRUT SOLIDERE ZEOTOUNI BAY- LEBANON

This year I had an opportunity to be invited to take part in two exhibitions in Beirut. The second exhibition took place in the UK embassy in Beirut, as a part of Olympic events, on the Queen's Bitrhday Party at Solidere Zeituni bay. The vernissage took place on June 13th 2012, and then the exhibition was exhibited in the legendary Phoenicia Hotel in Beirut. The theme of the exhibition was the UK flag painted by the Olimpic artist of OFAA.

"UNESCO World Day for Cultural Diversity" exhibition in Beirut (Lebanon)

I have an honour to take part in an open air exhibition "World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Developement" in The International Flag Art Beirut Solidere waterfront in Lebanon.

The exhibition is under very honorable patronage of UNESCO, Solidere, MEADOWS (Mediterranean Endeavors Advancing Development of Widespread Sustainability) and OFAA (Olimpia Fine Arts Association). The curator of an exhibition is a President of OFAA, Ms Lena Kelekian.



The theme of an exhibition is "Cultural Diversity". The opening ceremony took place on the 21st May 2012, and was an absolutely exceptional event. The exhibition will last until 30th August 2012.

 

I would like to thank Lena Kelekian very much. Lena has put lots of hard work to organise that amazing exhibition! I'd also like to congratulate all the OFAA artists who have taken part in this fantastic artistic event! Thank you all!!!

Lola Fischer and OFAA Artists in North Art Space's exhibition (Jakarta)

ANIMAL INSTINCT by Lola Fischer in "Reconsidering Earth" exhibition

Title: Animal Instinct
Technic: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 100x120 cm

I’ve chosen to interpret the word environment on two levels of meaning. First of all as the natural environment (all living and non-living things that occur naturally on Earth), and second of all as the social environment (the culture that an individual lives in, and the people and institutions with whom they interact). On that base, I’ve made a metaphor between that two meanings. I used two mechanisms from natural environment, such as animal instinct and atavism to illustrate human relations. To illustrate the problem , I chose to use the silhouette of most popular human’s friend, the dog. That makes the analogy more imaginative. Dog is quite popular in pop culture, which makes the work more ambiguous.
Also, the main inspiration for the work have been the dogs fights. Those kind of entertainment is illegal and inhuman. That dirty business is one of the most cruel and disgusting example of human intrusion in natural environment.
