The Italian photographer Gabriele Basilico (1944-2013) is considered one of the most important documentary photographers. For almost forty years, he has been looking at cities around the world and has developed a reflection on landscape photography. The exhibition "Back to Beirut", which presents for the first time the four photographic missions carried out in 1991, 2003, 2008 and 2011, documents the gradual reconstruction of the city and testifies to the photographer's great affection for the Lebanese capital.
