Born out of admiration for art and matter, Wadi 99 Art Gallery is dedicated solely to sculpture. With our distinct approach, the gallery will be complementing the burgeoning art scene in the region and showing established and mid-career contemporary artists from diverse backgrounds.

Wadi 99 Art Gallery will be hosting the first solo exhibition of Naguib Moein in Beirut ‘ REGNUM’ for our opening.

The creative experience of the artist Naguib Moein is distinguished by characteristics that set it apart. Among these characteristics are the unity of the mass, cohesiveness, and his focus on composition and ornamentation. He also adds a seamless harmony between the aesthetics of architecture and sculpture, giving his works a unique and unconventional touch.

The artist skillfully employs architectural elements as a primary component of the sculptural mass. Despite the small size of his works, they resemble fantastical monuments or meticulously constructed towers and castles. These forms depict mysterious details of an ancient legend—a legend that encompasses all the mythical tales that have passed through human imagination since the dawn of civilization.

‘REGNUM’ is curated by Christiane Ashkar Art Consultancy
