Austrian Artist Barbara Philip’s Graphic Diary Exhibition Captures the Melancholy of Quarantine
Starting September 30th, Austrian artist Barbara Philip’s graphic diary encapsulates the many different experiences of the COVID-19 lockdown, and will be showcased at the Cairo Opera House.
From border closures to empty concert halls, Philip's KNOCKDOWN collection was inspired by the sudden transformation that overtook our everyday life, resulting in a stunning graphic diary that details the period between March 16th and May 17th, 2020. Now the collection will take to Cairo Opera House’s Garden of the Syndicate of Visual Arts to be exhibited from September 30th to October 10th.
The artist will be joining on with a live talk through Zoom to discuss her works at 7:30 PM on opening night, just 30 minutes after the doors open. The showcase will be free for all visitors, and will go on until October 10th from 3 PM to 8 PM.
