The solo show at Sfeir-Semler Downtown Beirut dedicated to Samia Halaby is presented as an homage to the doyenne of our roster of artists, with paintings on canvas from the 1980s to 2025, accompanied by her seminal digital works. In 1986 Halaby started to program kinetic paintings on an amiga computer. These experimentations with computer-generated visuals naturally evolved into the Kinetic Painting Program, that transformed the keyboard of her PC into a live digital painting instrument, which she uses for her performances.
