Let Us Not Forget - Sowar Magazine

As part of a “Let us not Forget” campaign, the magazine asked nine highly renowned war photographers to send in some of their best shots from the streets of Beirut.

The intent of the initiative is to present images that serve as a reminder of the horrors of war so that they are not repeated. The edition is dedicated to the victims and their families.

Sowar, the phonetic pronunciation of the word “pictures” in Arabic, is a picture-intensive magazine that covers events, cultures, scenes, and people in Lebanon, the Middle East, and the Gulf.

The magazine’s concept is based on the premise that a picture with a few words is worth a million. Pictures are presented in full and double page spreads, in all their high resolution glory.

Sowar is available in major bookstores in Lebanon and via subscription to International and Local Readers (see www.sowarmag.com)
