After their two collaborations with the International Festival of Cinema VISIONS OF REALITY, the Centre de la photographie Geneve (CPG) took the initiative to organize a double presentation of Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige works at CPG and VISIONS DU RÉEL, as their works have video-cinematographic qualities as rich as they excel in the photographic realm. The CPG will not only show photographs by these two artists, born in Beirut in 1969, but also show two videos that cannot be shown other than as an installation. The title of the exhibition is the name of a series of burnt photographs of old postcards representing Beirut, burnt attributed by the artists to a fictive photographer. WONDER BEIRUT could equally correspond to an important part of the artistic work of Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige. As at ease in the domain of the documentary as within the domain of fiction, the two artists, who now live between Beirut and Paris, pose, with each new work, the question of how to represent memory, and at the same time, how to represent the war. In addition to showing WONDER BEIRUT, the CPG will show CIRCLE OF CONFUSION, TROPHIES OF WAR, as well as the two video-installations DISTRACTED BULLETS and KHIAM 2000-2007.
