presents the Book: The
Other Lebanon by Photographer Pascal Beaudenon
The
Other Lebanon, our Lebanon... At last we are able to see it illustrated
through the eyes of someone in love with its nature. This other
country, the real one, is here now with colors as authentic as
a sunset seen from Eruba or as red poppy blooming in the Qaa Valley.
The Other Lebanon takes you where rocks remains natural, where
the land runs wild and fertile and the sea spreads out a colorful
blanket of aquamarine hue until the shores of our hearts.
Pascale Beaudenon,
a photo journalist from the South of France is among us. Despite
the fact that his lens is focused on Lebanon's wars, yet it is
the country's mountain peaks and quiet valleys that made his head,
lens and heart spin. Beaudenon is especially fascinated with the
changing seasons and the landscapes' infinite beauty everywhere
he went. It is no wonder to learn of his decision to wed his new
passion which lies in capturing the true and authentic moments.
He has given up on producing anything else since, and with this
passion he started a journey full of hardships across Lebanon.
Nevertheless, it has
been a rich journey, during which he thoroughly and lovingly prepared
his works, while faith alone kept him going. He is definitely
determined on showing the Lebanese that their real country is
much more than a mass of concrete, that it dwells in the hills
or on the small breaking waves, a few kilometers away from the
frantic race against time and the dollar rush. Pascal surpasses
any Lebanese in his passion about Lebanon. It is also more difficult
to love one's profession as much as he does: carrying a 15 kilo
load on his back, he crosses a steep nature, at times inclement,
rocky gorges and mountain tops and waits patiently the time of
day when the light is perfect to capture a unique shot. We should
be thankful for Pascal led us to see Lebanon through his eyes.
Let us preserve it so it keeps its enchanting beauty and spectacular
diversity.
