520 "Were all the candidates' faces posted on the walls of
Lebanon during the parliamentary campaign of 2000 waiting
for the results of the elections? No. As faces, they were
waiting to be saved. Far better than any surgical face-
lift or digital retouching, it was the physical removal of
part of the poster of the face of one candidate so that
the face of another candidate would partially appear under
it; as well as the accretions of posters and photographs
over each other that produced the most effective face-lift,
and that proved a successful face-saver for all concerned.
We have in these resultant recombinant posters one of the
sites where Lebanese culture in specific, and Arabic
culture in general, mired in an organic view of the body,
in an organic body, exposes itself to inorganic bodies"--
