Qasr El Nil Street

For our anniversary, we wanted to make this exhibition about something that we can all relate to, something that's been there year after year; something that almost certainly has inspired many artists and many art forms. After a long thought process we decided that downtown Cairo was an area of great substance, a place worthy of recognition. We've all walked through these streets hundreds, if not thousands of times. And for that reason, we have decided to make this exhibition about Qasr El Nil Street, the most famous, over-crowded street of our beautiful Cairo. In this street we found all sorts of people, places, traditions and landmarks. And through this exhibition we hope to pay homage to this street and its very own character. Through this exhibition we aim to find new and different ways of expressing and investigating this concept.
