Ziad Antar (*1978) graduated from the American University of Beirut with a degree in Agricultural Engineering in 2001. Soon after, Antar started working with video and photography. He completed a one-year residency at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris in 2003 and a one-year residency for the post-diploma of the École des Beaux-Arts, Paris. Antar’s videos testify to a world in conflict, using subtle, playful and short shots charged with subtexts. Among his films are WA (2004), La Marche Turque (2006) and Mdardara (2006).
