All we can think about is Ramzy Galal’s green hair and how Sherine is actually saying “ya m3afer” and not “ya m3afen” in her commercial and we need to get our heads out of the TV. If you are like us, then it’s time to explore what’s happening around Cairo these blessed Ramadan nights, and we got you a list of events to pick from.

Thursday

Salam Youssry’s 40 at Gallery Art Talks

Salm Yousry has decided to celebrate turning 40 by creating an entire collection dedicated to that number. All the artwork presented is slightly different and more minimalistic than usual. We believe the artist is trying to depict the life changes that happen once you reach that age. Come to Art Talks Egypt and look at the art pieces and decide for yourself if this is what the artist actually means.
