From Roger Yazbek (now in China):

Just a quick note, since you are having a discussion about Picasso's work; I built and launched Pablo Picasso's unofficial website 12 years ago. A posters and prints company recently redesigned it for me. The site is www.Picasso.com.

 

Dr. Raja Srour is now having a Solo Show in EH National Bank in Beverly Hills for 3 months. You are welcome to see it any time. Congratulations!

Please welcome to our group new artist member Lama Mouawad who came recently to Los Angeles.

 
Lama Mouawad, Filmmaker

I was born and raised in Lebanon until the age of 18. Once I graduated high school, I travelled to Philadelphia to continue my education in the United States. I have lived in Philadelphia for 4 years with my aunts and cousins. My parents stayed in Lebanon and I was lucky enough to visit them almost every summer. This semester is my last, and I decided to do this program called: Los Angeles Internship Program. My college (Temple University) offers the students a semester in Los Angeles, where they are required to get internships in their majors and from these internships the student will get the experience they want. In December 2012, I will graduate from Temple as a Film and Media art student. I am looking into staying in Los Angeles and not go back to Philadelphia, but that all depends on finding work and a job in my field.
