The last issue of the bi-monthly journalistic and documentary photography magazine Sowar is building a photographic memory of the Mideast: Friday, 22 August, 2008, 2:22 Lebanon time, 22 photographers in 22 places from the Gulf, Lebanon and Middle East countries took a picture about what everyone else was doing in this very specific minute 22. Each image was further made part of a visual narrative, with few information on the location and author.
Sowar (the phonetic pronunciation of the word pictures in Arabic) was launched in 2007, being published in Beirut, Lebanon. Its tag line: "A picture with a few words is worth a million".
Another issue was dedicated to the Lebanon civil war (1975-1990).
