About Artist
Samir Tamari was born in Beirut in 1958. Tamari has had a long career in the advertising industry across the Arab world.
Tamari’s interest in art for art’s sake began at a young age. Early on, he drew portraits of his family members and his maternal village of Saghbine, Lebanon. He has experimented with different techniques and styles. One of his series espouses the naive style, and through playful paintings full of pop-culture references, Tamari evokes rather heavy metaphysical musings about life and its joys and troubles. Another of his series launches an exploration of abstract art.
Tamari’s work was exhibited in Artiste à découvrir, Espace Jacques Ouaiss (Beirut, 2017).
