Nile Sunset Annex is excited to invite you to Vartan Avakian's first solo show in Cairo, opening at 6pm on May 9. The show consists of two pieces. They are of an unusually small scale, and each has been through an unexpectedly long history and an intricate making process. One, a new work, could be described as a self-portrait. The other is a monument to some other people. Both use residues.

The exhibition will be open until June 4, open Saturday 12-6 or by appointment.
