mvam app for iPhone and iPad

By developing a mobile app for the National Museum of Modern Art, the Lebanese Ministry of Culture opens a unique window to the Lebanese and Arab World public. Through this window, the Ministry of culture in Lebanon aims at offering the app’s users the opportunity to gain insight into the evolution of the Lebanese fine art movements and its journey which spanned over decades by displaying the Ministry’s art collection.

Visiting the Virtual Museum is a cultural journey that will acquaint surfers with the diverse art schools and tendencies Lebanese artists joined and adopted from classical painting and sculpture all the way to abstraction and modernism.

Furthermore, the Virtual Museum acts as memoirs documenting the development of the Lebanese fine art and sheds the light on how Lebanese artists interacted with the European and international art scene and undertakings.

A section of the Virtual Museum is dedicated to the works of promising artists, since we believe that young artists will have a major role in reviving Lebanese art. Another section is devoted to artworks from private collections, depicting an initiative of partnership between the government and citizens the purpose of which is to enrich the fine arts movement.
This project is the fruit of a collaboration between the Lebanese Ministry of Culture and the University of Balamand.
