Darb 1718

Mission Statement

Our mission, first and foremost, is to cultivate the burgeoning contemporary art movement in Egypt. We do this while endeavouring to engage young Egyptian artists with more established local and international artists, all intermingling with the dynamic Fustat community. [...]The Darb 1718 Contemporary Art and Culture Center seeks to encourage experimentation by supporting new works by emerging artists with particular attention to artistic merit, diversity of media and aesthetic traditions, along with originality of cultural influences.
