30. Egypt

 

 

Whenever you arrive by plane you arrive like a bird; you think you are there but you have no idea yet what is the location all about. Driving a car or taking a bike give so much more information about the place you are visiting. Also by plane we can not take paintings. Just catalogues, digital information and verbal presnetations are possible.
So we arrive in January 2014, quite in the middle of e general crisis in Egypt. But we were escorted to the Sahl Haseesh resort and have not seen much of Egypt at all. I think I have seen more Russians the Egyptians.
Our aim was to visit the international Art Colony and Symposium, an event with over 65 participating artists. Nice place, and as center of the Egyptina tourist industry very well trained in comforting the audience. So we artists had a great time here.

At this moment I can not say too muc about this country because it was a short visit. we love to report more as soon as we have been able to come back with paintings, painting sand stories.
