MIDDLE EAST MATTERS © FRANCE 24

Ersin Karabulut is one of Turkey's most famous cartoonists. His new autobiographical comic strip "The Anxious Diary of Istanbul" has just been published as a book here in France. He joins us from Istanbul to tell us more about how the political climate is affecting artists there.

Meanwhile, as protests grow in Iran, artists throw their weight behind those in the streets.

Finally, we head to Beirut to check out a new exhibition in one of the city's most famous civil war buildings.
