Nabu Museum is an art museum located in El Heri near Chekka, Lebanon. Its collection primarily consists of Bronze and Iron Age artifacts representing Roman, Greek, Byzantine, Phoenician, Mesopotamian, and contemporary Lebanese cultures, as well as manuscripts and ethnographic material. The museum's collections also include local, regional, modern and contemporary art by Lebanese artists.[1][2][3] The museum gets its name from the Mesopotamian Patron God of literacy, Nabu.
The museum's collection of contemporary Lebanese art consist of work by artists including Shafic Abboud, Amin al-Bacha, Helen Khal, Dia Azzawi, Shakir al-Said, Omar Onsi, Mustapha Farroukh, Ismail Fattah, Adam Henein, Khalil Gibran, Paul Guiragossian, and Mahmoud Obaidi.
The structure housing Nabu Museum was built in collaboration with Dia Azzawi, an Iraqi artist and Mahmoud Obaidi, an Iraqi-Canadian artist.[4][2] The façade that envelopes the entire structure is made of weathering steel. The interior of the building was designed by Obaidi. The museum was licensed by the Lebanese ministry of culture under decree number 16/2018 on 8 March 2018.
