ElGazzar is a leading figure in modern Egyptian art of the 20th century This catalogue raisonn, is dedicated to the artist's paintings and graphic works, archives and photographsElGazzar, born in 1925 in Alexandria, is a leading figure in modern Egyptian art of the 20th century. He enrolled in the Faculty of Fine Arts in Cairo in 1944 and then joined the Contemporary Art Group founded by Hussein Youssef Amin, his master. With an innovative and unique expressionist style, it portrays the people of Cairo in a folkloric way. Later, he tried his hand at abstraction by representing industrial machines and their effects on humans. Recognized during his lifetime, the production of ElGazzar was exhibited in France from 1949, at the Venice Biennale in 1952 and at the So Paulo Museum in 1953. Today, his works are in private collections in Cairo, Alexandria, Rome, Paris and Brussels, but also in major institutions around the world, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York or the Mathaf: Arab Museum of Modern Art. This catalogue raisonn, published in English, comprises two volumes. The first is dedicated to the artist's paintings and the second to graphic works, archives and photographs. It brings an understanding of the enigmatic work of the artist, but also of modern Egyptian art in general.
