Annabel Daou

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Annabel Daou (born 1967) is a Lebanese contemporary artist.[1][2] Her art practice includes sculpture, performance and drawing, often with the additional influences of writing and literature.[3][4][5]

In April 2020, at the beginning of the 2020 Covid pandemic, Daou staged the work I will worry for you (from dusk till dawn). In the piece, she took over the burden of worrying about the particular issues facing her audience, based on emailed suggestions.[6]

Daou has exhibited at the National Museum of Beirut, the KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin, and Park Avenue Armory, New York.[7]

Her work is included in the collections of the Brooklyn Museum[1] and the Columbus Museum, Georgia.[8]
