To mark its 10th anniversary, Marfa' invites eighteen galleries from around the world to participate in an exhibition at its Beirut location.
After a decade of exhibitions, art fairs and fruitful collaborations with colleagues worldwide, Marfa’ celebrates this anniversary with the spirit of a birthday party. Galleries from around the world whose support was uplifting within the challenging context of the past five years are invited to present one or more of their artists in a group exhibition at Marfa’. Through this, Marfa' hopes to collaborate on a gesture that transforms the anniversary into a shared celebration. Highlighting the values of collegiality and community, Marfa’ 10 emphasises that all galleries face similar challenges and can benefit from mutual support, regardless of location or size.
The initiative showcases the possibility of building cross-cultural conversations between galleries and artists alike, reinforcing that art remains a powerful connector even in complex contexts. At its core, the exhibition is about celebrating togetherness – bringing friends closer and opening new doors for dialogue.
We’re excited to invite you to celebrate Marfa’s 10th anniversary alongside 18 galleries from all over the world!
