Synopsis

The most comprehensive study of the Egyptian-German artist, developed in the course of a close dialogue with the editor, Hans Ulrich Obrist. Hefuna has been working in the media of drawing, photography, installation and video since the early 1990s. She uses these various techniques to intertwine levels of meaning and reflect many-layered codes, which she interprets in both concrete and abstract manners. Presents numerous new works by the versatile artist and photographs of her working process, much of which is completed on the streets of Cairo.
