Neo-Situationism, Lebanese style.
Interesting piece in the Washington Post today on an ad campaign aimed at building Lebanese identity through pointing out where atomizing based on religious etc identity could end up, hence the billboard above. Can't find anything about it in the english language Lebanese press. As with so many of the more sophisticated pieces of advertising, there was an outbreak of 'not getting it': "Across the capital, one in six billboards was torn down, prevented from being put up or splashed with paint"
