FRTR is featured in Ba'a exhibition at Soma Bay
From Rags to Riches project was featured in Ba'a Exhibition at Soma Bay in Hurghada during the weekend of 6-8 October 2016 as a part of the Peacock for Art exhibition featuring 11 Egyptian contemporary artists at Soma Bay. A mobile exhibition was on display at the Sultan Lounge of the Kempinski Hotel and some art works of upcycled material were displayed at Robinson’s public beach.
The exhibition was among the activities of an exceptional weekend, including the concert of Ace of Base and Modern Talking, a bonfire and a beach party. A crowd of two thousand people had the opportunity to enjoy this art display and gain a new insight into how contemporary art is perceived in Egypt. For the first time in the country, the audience had the chance to interact with art in alternative venues and experience a different form of participation which, at the same time, succeeded in inspiring minds and adding beauty and life quality to a place. |
