The artist was born in 1981 in Lebanon; he lives and works in Beirut.

Ahmad Ghossein has a very particular way of questioning reality. In his video “The Fourth Stage”, he depicts the enigmatic disappearance of a magician in Lebanon, who vanished simultaneously with the formation of monumental abstract sculptures in the public space.

Ahmad Ghossein shows a clear interest in power structures, and their effects on society.
