Ashekman
Street Art

Started in 2001 in Beirut Lebanon by identical twin brothers Omar and Mohamed Kabbani, ASHEKMAN is an Arabic street art crew and it's considered among the early adopters of Arabic calligraphy in street art.

Born in the midst of the Lebanese civil war in the early 80's, the twins witnessed several wars in 3 decades that made them organically start a platform to fight social, political and religious extremism that fueled the false propaganda about the Middle-East.

ASHEKMAN's mission is to revive the Arabic culture using an urban context, to bring back the golden Arab age where poetry, science, and knowledge used to be exported and translated to all cultures and finally to spread a positive message of tolerance.

ASHEKMAN style is Arabic Calligraffiti, mixing classical Arabic calligraphy with modern Arabic graffiti, the twins tagged over 100 walls in Beirut, Dubai, Jeddah, Kuwait, Doha, Geneva, Birmingham, Yerevan, and Stockholm. Their positive messages and creative approach put them on the map where they were interviewed on CNN, BBC, MTV Europe, Rolling Stones Magazine, Forbes magazine, France 24 and featured in several books and other major media outlets plus they gave workshops and lecture in prestigious design universities in Beirut and Dubai.
