SOURA is an associative platform, intended to support the Lebanese photographic creation. The aim is to contribute to the continuity of the photographic production in Lebanon, to promote this scene and to support it in order to favour its influence.
SOURA also aims to train and inform in the field of photography in Lebanon in order to encourage exchanges to defend cultural diversity.
SOURA is a platform for the dissemination, promotion and visibility of emerging and established Lebanese photographers to ensure the continuity of production and creativity in this field.
Soura develops limited editions of multiples dedicated to contemporary Lebanese photography for exhibitions and one-off events. Created in close collaboration with Lebanese photographers, these editions pave the way for new practices in this field.
Each project is based on a dialogue to create works coherent with the vision of the association and the artists.
Our mission is to support Lebanese photographers, to encourage their development and the dissemination of their projects so that they can meet their public.
This initiative aims to contribute to mitigating the impacts of a crisis that is likely to last for a long time by offering long-term support.
Soura’s team is composed of members with complementary profiles, each bringing the necessary expertise to the realization of the association’s projects.
The team is completed by an advisory committee composed of personalities of reference in the field of photography and culture. As guarantors of expertise, they offer the association guarantees of seriousness and coherence while also contributing to reinforcing our values
