Figurative Practices to open at ALMASAR Gallery
Figurative Practices, a multi-artist exhibition held at ALMASAR Gallery will open on Sunday 29 May
Published in Ahram Online on 24 - 05 - 2011

Figurative Practices will be showcasing both paintings and sculptures that will provide viewers with a lively walk through the cultural interpretations and visions of the most prominent Egyptian artists. Each artist's work has traces of their own life and experiences in Egypt from its beautiful sceneries, to Egyptian figures and faces whose features express unspoken words and emotions exposing our personalities and identities.
Through each artist an establishment of the Egyptian identity is formed. The works of the artists cannot be more of a truthful depiction of the world around them. Their works have been at the vanguard of communicating the beliefs, wishes and dreams of this society and the essence of their art makes it a true representative of the soul of Egyptian Art as a whole, being the medium in which ideas and the elements of visual art are joined.
Participating artists include Mounir Canaan, Ibrahim El Dessouky, Mahmoud El Dowaih, Essam Darwich, Tahia Halim, Taha Hussein, Essam Marouf, Adel El Siwi, Kareem El Qurity and Asmaa El Nawawy.
The exhibition will continue until 25 September atALMASAR Gallery, Baehler's Mansion, 157b, 26th of July Street, Ground Floor, Zamalek, Cairo
