Using Western-style academic art as a starting point, these artists championed cultural progress, re-appropriating Egyptian visual culture from European orientalists to found a neo-Pharaonic School of Realism. Modern Art in Egypt charts the years from Muhammad Ali's educational reforms to the mass influx of foreigners during the nineteenth-century. With a focus on the al-Nahda thought movement, this book provides an overview of the key policy-makers, reformists and feminists who founded the first School of Fine Arts in Egypt, as well as cultural salons, museums and arts collectives. By combining political and aesthetic histories, Fatenn Mostafa breaks the prevailing understanding that has preferred to see non-Western art as derivatives of Western art movements. Modern Art in Egypt re-establishes Egypt's presence within the global Modernist canon."-- $c Publisher description. 650 0 $a Art, Egyptian $y 19th century. 650 0 $a Art, Egyptian $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009115791 650 0 $a Art $x Political aspects $z Egypt. 650 7 $a Art, Egyptian. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/816211 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/816211 650 7 $a Art $x Political aspects. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/815309 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/815309 651 7 $a Egypt. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1208755 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1208755 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317025250.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E30D40A2323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
