Press text
A thinker, writer and political commentator, El Rayess wrote a manifesto in 1972 entitled With Whom and Against Whom and in 1975, while visiting Algeria, he produced a series of drawings depicting the Lebanese civil war, published as the book The Road to Peace. Original restored drawings are presented in the exhibition alongside a copy of the bound book, which was censored in Lebanon at the time and was never formally published.
