Antoine Berberi, a Glory Among the Glories of Lebanon

Al-Amal · 17 October 1987

A long portrait celebrating the artist as a source of national pride. The text recounts his childhood, his training, the discovery of his talent, and a significant episode: in 1972, the making of a bust dedicated to the martyred officer Samir Chartouni. Written in a committed style, the article evokes the artist's exchanges with the Lebanese world of letters and the arts, and his ambition to « engrave in bronze » the memory of the country.

Original article in Arabic.
