Sinossi

Immerse yourself in the groundbreaking artistic vision of Sameh AL Tawil, the renowned Egyptian-German multimedia artist whose work transcends conventional boundaries of medium and expression. Written by distinguished art critic Fatma Ali, with a foreword by celebrated artist Khaled Hafez, this comprehensive monograph offers an unprecedented exploration of AL Tawil's remarkable 25-year artistic evolution.

"Sameh Al Tawil : The Monograph" takes readers on a fascinating journey through AL Tawil's development from his early paintings and sculptural works in Egypt to his complex digital installations incorporating machine learning and artificial intelligence in Germany and around the world. As an artist who defies categorization, AL Tawil creates art that provokes profound questions about identity, migration, Neo slavery, technology, and human dignity through painting, photography, live performance, conceptual music, text, and sound.

This definitive volume meticulously analyzes AL Tawil's most significant projects, including "Cupboard", "Slavery Documents," "Clockwise," "Chaos," and "Ready to Go," revealing how his transmedia approach challenges our understanding of reality itself. Ali's insightful critique illuminates how AL Tawil's work embodies philosophical concepts from thinkers like Baudrillard, gille deleuze, jacques derrida, among others, while remaining deeply personal and emotionally resonant.

Readers will discover how AL Tawil's unique position as an artist navigating between Egyptian and German cultures has shaped his artistic vision, allowing him to create work that speaks to universal human experiences while addressing pressing contemporary issues. His innovative integration of music, performance, and digital technology creates immersive experiences that transform how we perceive and interact with art.

"Sameh Al Tawil : The Monograph" is essential reading for art historians, collectors, students, and anyone interested in the evolution of contemporary art at the intersection of traditional practice and cutting-edge technology. This definitive study not only documents AL Tawil's significant contribution to the global art landscape but also provides a framework for understanding the future of multimedia artistic expression in our increasingly digital world.

    Nightfly - The Life of Steely...

    Donald Fagen will forever be associated with Steely Dan, the band he formed with Walter Becker and four other musicians in 1972. 
     
     
     
    The smooth, radio-friendly veneer of the duo's songs made Steely Dan internationally popular and famous in the 1970s, but the polish glossed over the underlying layers of anger, disappointment, sleaze, and often downright weirdness lurking just beneath the surface. The elliptical lyrics were—and continue to be—an endless source of fascination. What kind of person was capable of writing such songs? 
     
     
     
    Fagen has always kept his true self hidden behind walls of irony, confounding most journalistic enquiries with a mixture of obscurity and sarcasm. Nightfly cracks open the door to reveal the life behind the lyrics and traces Fagen's story from early family life in suburban New Jersey, to his first encounter with Walter Becker at Bard College, their long struggle for recognition as songwriters, and the formation of Steely Dan. The band's break-up in 1981, reformation in 1993, and Fagen's parallel solo career are covered in detail.
