Most recently al-Beik had a solo exhibit at Museum Neukölln, Berlin, Germany (2017) titled "Lost Images Damascus, Berlin", worth to mention that Metropolis program on ARTE did a special episode featuring al-Beik and the exhibit.
In 2017, al-Beik participated in the "Sanctuary" exhibit invited by For-Site Foundation, where 36 artists from 21 different countries to design contemporary rugs reflecting on sanctuary, offering visitors a multiplicity of perspectives on the basic human need for refuge, protection, and sacred ground.
He was a participant in the Syrian cultural caravan (2014–5).
Al-Beik was born and grew up in Damascus, Syria, from where he has been exiled since 2011.
In 2011, he returned to the Venice Film Festival - Official Selection again with the short film “The Sun’s Incubator”, a work that explores the domestic effects of the ‘Arab Spring’, to become the first Syrian filmmaker participating twice in this festival. Since then, this film has participated in more than 50 film festivals including the Palais de Tokyo, Berlin, Rotterdam and São Paulo, and has received several awards, among them the Jury Award at the Busan Film Festival in 2012.
Delving into installation art since 2010, al-Beik has done so with the urgent need to fill a certain void and the desire to ignite the shock of an initial meeting between the viewer and the work within an immersion in the details of a guarded space.“Colored Earth... Black Chainsaw”, “Oil Leaks” and “Boya Boya Boya” along with other overly political works that incorporate elements of video, painting, sculpture and animation are some of his most recent.
Equally accomplished in both genres, his photographs have been shown in venues throughout the Middle East, Europe and the US. Since joining Ayyam gallery in 2007, al-Beik has participated in solo and group exhibitions, as well as in many international art fairs.
His invitation to the 63rd Annual Venice Film Festival - Official Selection (2006), was a first in the history of Syrian cinema, where he received the Provincia Autonoma di Trento Doc/It- Award for his film “I Am the One Who Brings Flowers to Her Grave”. Since then, this film has been touring the world to be screened in the most prestigious film festivals and events including Berlin, Locarno, Rotterdam, the MoMA and the Centre Pompidou.

Having participated in screenings worldwide since 1999, his films have been featured at such events as the Venice, Rotterdam, São Paulo, Oberhausen, Locarno, Nantes and Yamagata International Film Festivals.
His choice for cinema was a choice of life, a choice of rebellion through the reality of its political, social and artistic means. al-Beik's early cinematic works, such as “Light Harvest” (1997) and “They Were Here” (2000), provide evidence of his strong foundation in photography, as nearly each scene results in the perfect still, acting fundamentally as a sequence of images.
Al-Beik's artistic career stems from unconventional roots. His love for photography intensified after leaving the University of Damascus where he was pursuing a degree in business administration in order to work at a camera repair shop for ten years during the 1990s. It is there where he received his formal training in the medium, exploring various methods and approaches while becoming an expert in photographic equipment. He has been exhibiting his photographs since the mid 1990s, at a time when he simultaneously began an impressive career in filmmaking. Taking his cinematic works to the international stage, he has earned critical acclaim from audiences and juries across the globe and has been honored with a number of distinctions and awards.
