Kellon كلّن
The intervention titled "kellon" translated by "All of them" drowns
the last page of Al-Akhbar under red paint. The only identifiable
word is "kellon" that is repeated between the lines and refers to
the popular manifestations of August 2015 due to the ongoing garbage
crisis in Lebanon. "All of them" is the only response available to a
country in deadlock because of its political elite summoned to
resign, "All of them" without exception.

The Museum in the making initiated by APEAL, with contribution of
Temporaty art platform (T.A.P), have commissioned 12 artists to
reflect upon the space and the physicality of the newspaper as a
space for engagement with the public. On the last Sunday of the
month - April, May, June, 2016 - each newspaper printed one artist
intervention within their pages.
Published in Al-Akhbar on 25/06/2016 accompanied by a mediation box
on the first page of the paper.
