GALLERY WARD

Gallery ward presents “The Hive,” a solo exhibition by Ahmed Kassim, from 29 January – 7 March 2014.
The Hive will feature a series of commissioned artwork by the contemporary Egyptian artist Ahmed Kassim. This exhibition will feature the unique satirical style used in his vibrant canvas paintings reflecting the socio-political culture in Egypt today.

Typically a hive is a metaphor for a very tightly packed group of cells. They tend to be densely populated and swarming with activity. In this exhibition, the curator brings forth the idea of the hive as a metaphor for everyday life, within a given physical space, over a period of time. The artist, Ahmed Kassim has therefore created a specially commissioned series of acrylic on canvas paintings with his personal culturally specific interpretation of this highly charged concept.
