Art and cultural production in Egypt during the last hundred years has operated against a backdrop of political crisis and confrontation. In this book, the author focuses on the turbulent changes of the 1920s to 1960s, when polemical discourse and artistic practice developed against entrenched and co-opted conservatism of elite and state culture.
