AHMED AL DANDARAWY

Ahmed Al Dandarawy أحمد الدندراوى     The artwork of Ahmed Al Dandarawy celebrates the rural lifestyles and ongoing traditions found in small towns and villages throughout Egypt today. Yet Ahmed's paintings and drawings invoke a contemporary quality and intimacy with his unique vision and colorful compositions. Intricate with wonderful details and ornate designs, one's eyes wanders through his artwork making discoveries and experiencing the sense of private encounters: women confiding on the eve of a wedding, a naked bride, or the secret moments between couples in love. Like memories, filled with emotions, dense with meaning, and embellished with motifs, Ahmed's passionate artwork is full of feelings and nostalgia. —D.N.
