Glory by Farida El Gazzar

 

 

Glory, by Farida El Gazaar at the Kalfayan Galleries, Haritos Street, Athens.

 

In this exhibition Greek-Egyptian artist Farida El Gazzar has recorded her memories of Alexandria, a place where Greek and Egyptian cultures have co-existed for centuries. It's a journal of personal memories, family photographs and a snapshots of everyday life. El Gazzar records the changes in the city from the successive rows of uniform red brick building complexes to the window displays of old shops demonstrating how the past and the present co-exist in a world of rapid change.
