Nazli Madkour

Painter

Nazli Madkour was born in Cairo, Egypt, in 1949, where she lives and works. She holds a master degree in Political Economy from the American University in Cairo. Since 1982, she held over 40 solo shows and took part in numerous collective exhibitions in Egypt and abroad. She has exhibited in Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, UK, Holland, Greece, Lebanon, Sharjah, Qatar, Bahrein, Kuwait, Ecuador, Japan, China, USA, and Canada. Her works were acquired by numerous private and public collections in Egypt and abroad.

 

Madkour is the author of the book Women and Art in Egypt (in Arabic, 1989 – in English, 1993). She illustrated a deluxe edition of Nobel Laureate Naguib Mahfouz book “Arabian Days and Nights”  published by the “Limited Editions Club” in New York in 2005.  The book and the originals were first exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery, Washington D.C. (USA) in June 2005; they were then shown in Egypt, Holland, Japan, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, the UK and Canada.

Madkour was a member of the Plastic Arts Committee of the Supreme Council for Culture from 2002 to 2005, a member of the Jury of Cairo International Biennale 2010, a member of the Jury of Persbook Art Competition for 2011 and 2012 and head of the Jury of Cairo Youth Salon 2012.

 

Her works fall between abstraction and figuration exploring an inner world inspired from nature and women. Her paintings are earthy, mostly textured and multi layered. Her sources are predominantly local and her aesthetic language universal.
