                Reborn Museum Stokes Thriving Lebanese Art Scene

   by John Owens

   Lebanon's lavish Sursock Museum has re-opened after eight years and
   nearly $14 million of renovation. The museum was a prominent part of
   Beirut's vibrant cultural scene in the 1960s. Two other galleries are
   opening this month, and an international competition has begun to
   design a contemporary art museum slated to open in 2020. Amid this
   resurgence in the arts in Lebanon, John Owens visits the Sursock and
   looks at a Lebanese art scene that is once again gaining global
   attention.
