Parallel Universes II brings together the works of fourteen artists: Ahmed El Gaafary, Ahmed R. Sakr, Amira Mannah, Ayman Elsemary, Hany Mgaly, Hesham Abdelmoaty, Khaled Sorour, Mohamed Abulnaga, Mohamed Elfayoumi, Mohamed Nabil Abdelsalam, Mostafa Eissa, Salah Hammad, Sameh Ismael, and Wael Darweish.
The exhibition presents a curated selection of paintings alongside eleven remarkable sculptures, reflecting a wide spectrum of artistic approaches and visual languages. While each artist works independently, the exhibited works are placed in dialogue, revealing points of convergence and contrast across form, material, and conceptual intent. Together, the exhibition highlights the diversity of contemporary artistic expression across both two-dimensional and three-dimensional practices. Particular emphasis is placed on experimentation within the displayed works. These explorations extend across material choices, surface treatment, compositional structures, and approaches to subject matter. Moving between abstraction, figuration, and conceptual interpretation, the artists demonstrate varied responses to image-making and form. Through this multiplicity of approaches, Parallel Universes II reflects the ongoing development of contemporary art practices and the evolving concerns shaping today’s visual discourse.
Parallel Universes II also brings together artists from different generations, creating a space where established voices and younger perspectives are presented side by side. This intergenerational presence allows for a broader view of artistic creation, revealing both continuity and change in visual expression over time.Rather than presenting a single unified theme, the exhibition highlights the coexistence of multiple artistic viewpoints. Each work contributes to a larger context that reflects the diversity, experimentation, and individuality that define contemporary painting today.
