Nadim Karam
A giant 15m high copper-clad sculpture called “The Carrier”, was installed in front of the locked and bolted National Museum to take the museum on a dream trip around Lebanon, and restore her faith in the present. Music, installations and many other sculptures animated the roof, traffic island and nearby buildings.
