The Power of Art in the Egyptian Revolution

The Egyptian revolution is, in many ways, still underway and has been complicated, especially for those of us watching it from afar. Giving us a look inside the tumult that changed Egypt is Mohamed Abla, a visual artist and political activist who was in the thick of things in Tahrir Square during the 2011 uprising. Abla’s art conveys the chaotic years the country has experienced since then. At the same time he hopes his work can help to bring people together, which is part of what he’ll be discussing in his free appearance at The Fox.
