Galal El Husseiny

Galal El Husseiny, is one of the sons of the Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Architecture, from which he graduated in 1960. Throughout his artistic career, he presented quite a few art and group exhibitions.
Out of dozens of artistic schools, the Egyptian artist Galal El Husseiny chose modern realism as a path through which he was able to present to artistic life in Egypt about nine private exhibitions and more than ten group exhibitions. Among the raw materials, Galal El Husseiny, was used to produce dozens of his charming paintings, which embodied in the best way the most beautiful and unique scenes of Egyptian nature.

The works of El Husseiny were dominated by the green nature of Egypt and the scenes of sailboats running in the waters of the Nile and palm trees on a beach, while the pigeon bird is almost the common denominator in most of his works.

He justifies his conversion from oil colors to aquarelle by saying: Perhaps this goes back to the early school days, in which I used aquarelle colors in the implementation of a number of school paintings, and they were greatly admired and encouraged by my teachers, to the extent that I was working on painting. Even after the school day is over, and I don't come home until after sunset.

Galal El Husseiny does not see a conflict between his work in engineering and his hobby for art. He owes a lot to his teacher, Hussein Bikar, and says: “I learned from the works of simplicity and distinctive imprint, and the need for each artist to search for his own lines. However, this does not prevent my intense fascination with Van Gogh's paintings, whose great works shake me to the point of an earthquake, standing like a very young student in front of his long and rich artistic history.”
