Art Events in Egypt

Forever Is Now is a contemporary art exhibition that brings together artists from throughout the region and the world to contemplate the wonder of an ancient civilisation through the lens created by their practices. The annual exhibition takes place at the 4,500-year-old UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Pyramids of Giza and the surrounding plateau, a landscape that has become, under Art D’Égypte’s stewardship, the first and largest contemporary art exhibition of its kind ever staged there, transforming an archaeological monument into a living platform for global cultural exchange.

The Cairo International Art District (CIAD) is Art D’Égypte’s flagship intervention into the streets, buildings, and public memory of Downtown Cairo, a multidisciplinary platform that turns the district’s historic fabric into a living stage for contemporary practice. Now in its sixth edition, CIAD gathers site-specific installations, urban interventions, and a citywide art walk across three central venues: The Factory, Access Art Space, and Kodak Passage.
