Born in 1982, Mekhail graduated from Helwan Fine Arts Institute in 2004, after which he trained during 4 years under the tutelage of Egyptian pivotal artist, Adam Henein. Armed with outstanding craftsmanship and intensive training, Mekhail carved a distinctive and independent direction for himself, culminating in winning the 2011 Sculpture Award at the Ministry of Culture's Youth Salon. Mekhail’s passion for Egypt’s glorious past is prominent in his rich body of work. He manages to blend Pharaonic, Coptic and Greek lines onto his work. His forms are usually semi-abstractions of the human figure - suggestive celebration of the sensual female body or icons of our proud Egyptian Coptic and Muslim heritage. As we struggle about our Egyptian identity, Maged Mekhail gently reminds us of what we stand for - a diverse, rich and tolerant people who have shaped the past and are able to embrace the future.

35. MAGED
MEKHAIL.
BORN
1982.
EGYPTIAN.
FINE
ARTS
SCHOOL
GRADUATE
2004.
As
part
of
our
mission
to
act
as
a
search
engine
for
Egypt's
next
genera@on
of
Contemporary
Ar@sts,
ArtTalks
is
proud
to
present
the
first
solo
show
for
Maged
Mekhail.
Born
in
1982,
Mekhail
graduated
from
Helwan
Fine
Arts
Ins@tute
in
2004,
aOer
which
he
trained
during
4
years
under
the
tutelage
of
Egyp@an
pivotal
ar@st,
Adam
Henein.
Armed
with
outstanding
craOsmanship
and
intensive
training,
Mekhail
carved
a
dis@nc@ve
and
independent
direc@on
for
himself,
culmina@ng
in
winning
the
2011
Sculpture
Award
at
the
Ministry
of
Culture's
Youth
Salon.
Mekhail’s
passion
for
Egypt’s
glorious
past
is
prominent
in
his
rich
body
of
work.
He
manages
to
blend
Pharaonic,
Cop@c
or
Greek
lines
onto
his
work.
His
forms
are
usually
semi-­‐abstrac@ons
of
the
human
figure
-­‐
sugges@ve
celebra@on
of
the
sensual
female
body
or
icons
of
our
proud
Egyp@an
Cop@c
and
Muslim
heritage.
As
we
struggle
and
argue
about
our
Egyp@an
iden@ty,
Maged
Mekhail
gently
reminds
us
of
what
we
stand
for
-­‐
a
diverse,
rich
and
tolerant
people
who
have
shaped
the
past
and
are
able
to
embrace
the
future.
Mekhail
is
set
to
fly.
And
is
set
to
last
to
become
one
of
Egypt’s
most
successful
contemporary
ar@sts.
