 ABOUT US

Art on 56th Gallery is a Beirut-based contemporary art gallery founded in 2011 and rooted in the historic district of Gemmayzeh. Since its establishment, the gallery has developed a strong regional and international presence, representing artists from Lebanon, the Middle East, and beyond, with works held in major museums, foundations, and private collections.

The gallery supports both emerging and established artists, with a focus on expanding the visibility of regional artistic practices internationally and fostering meaningful cross-cultural exchange. Deeply connected to Beirut and its evolving creative landscape, Art on 56th remains committed to its local context while actively engaging with the global art scene.

Following the Beirut Port explosion, the gallery contributed to preserving its space and supporting the continuity of the surrounding artistic community.
 
Founded by Beirut-based gallerist and art advisor Noha Wadi Moharram, the gallery continues to champion artists from the Middle East while building bridges with the wider international art world.
