Mahmoud Mokhtar's Egypt's Renaissance 1919-1928, Cairo University Gate

Mokhtar died at the age of 45 but, like many artists who die young, was able to accomplish much in very little time.
Mokhtar’s depiction of the perfect, proud Egyptian peasant woman made her one of the iconic symbols of modern Egypt under British occupation; his statues Siesta and Sadness, however, are exceptions.
The Mokhtar Museum, custom designed by Ramses Wissa Wassef, opened to the public in 1962 after the works of the sculptor were moved from their special pavilion in the Fine Arts Museum in Tahrir.

Mokhtar has often lectured to youth groups at mosques, has spoken at Rutgers University rallies supporting the Palestinian cause and was invited to speak later this month at a summer camp run by the Young Muslims of North America.
Magdy Mahmoud, president of the New Jersey chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said Mokhtar is one of many young men on the lecture circuit, "a wise man in the community, a humble man." Mahmoud said Mokhtar visited several mosques in New Jersey and was not affiliated with just one.
Mahmoud said Mokhtar distinguished himself by the "balanced views" he presented to his audience.

 Al-Ahram Weekly | Culture | A homage to Mokhtar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
The idea of arresting the flow of time, of conquering the painful ephemerality at the heart of life, of defeating mortality or netting a few precious moments from the stream of days to fix them eternally, for all time, lies at the heart of many works of representational art.
Mokhtar's historical contribution to Egyptian culture was the recovery and reinstatement of the forgotten art of sculpture which the rise of anti- representational creeds had suspected and discredited as a leftover from paganism.
Mokhtar's contribution to the evolution of the idea of "Egyptianness" as a national identity through his restoration of Egypt's pre- Christian, pre-Islamic past in his works inspired the conceptual framework, simple narrative line and characters in Mahmoud Mokhtar and the Khamaseen Winds.

 Egypt State Information Service-Spring 1996
Hoda Sharaawi sent artist Mahmoud Saber to France to study pottery techniques at the Syphir factory, which he then brought back and applied at her workshop at Rod Al-Farag.
The cultural and artistic renaissance stemming from the expression of the Egyptian consciousness in the revolution of 1919, which saw Mahmoud Mokhtar in France sculpting his statue Nahdat Misr, winner of the first prize on the Paris Salon of 1920, really did see an awakening on the artistic front.
Thus Mokhtar's statues, Youssef Kamel and his colleagues 'portraits, and Said alSadr's ceramic works revived formal art which helped, alongside the artistic renaissance taking place in the fields of poetry, literature, theatre and music, to weave the fabric of the new Egyptian civilisation.

Egypt's leading sculptor Mahmoud Mokhtar (1891-1934) died a frustrated man. His court case against the government for non-payment of LE 8,000, a very large sum in those days, remained unresolved.
To Mokhtar who had already commenced work, this was a flagrant breach of contract.

The volume appeared in 1949, 15 years after Mukhtar's death at the age of 41, and so one might have grounds to be a little suspicious of direct quotations.
For many years the museum devoted to his work stood proudly on a site opposite the Opera House, though since the late 1990s it has been closed, for renovation and remodelling, so the sign outside announces, though quite why this is taking so long is anyone's guess.
Still, the museum is there, and for the past month Mukhtar has been the subject of a small retrospective, in that most glittering of public exhibition spaces, Horizon I, attached to the Mohamed Mahmoud Khalil Museum.
