Elias Maroun. Beirut, 2026

Elias Maroun is a Lebanese cultural producer, multidisciplinary artist and architect working across visual art, graphic design, architecture and live experiences. His practice explores contemporary culture through storytelling, design and conceptual art.

For more than a decade, he has conceived and produced concerts, festivals, exhibitions and cultural events in Lebanon and internationally. In 2013, he founded KREM Productions, a Beirut-based cultural production studio. He is also the co-founder of Beit Tabaris, an artist residency in Beirut, and One For Lebanon, an initiative supporting Lebanon's independent cultural sector.

In 2026, Elias Maroun presented Still Beautiful. Still Broken., his first solo exhibition and the inaugural chapter of Still Home, an ongoing artistic project exploring contemporary Lebanon through conceptual art. Borrowing the visual language of cigarette warning labels, the series reflects on attachment, nostalgia, uncertainty and the complex relationship many Lebanese maintain with their country.
