Mural, West Bank of Luxor
This mural, found in Luxor, is by Alaa Awad, a young Egyptian graffiti artist who painted his messages on the cement barriers erected around Tahrir Square during the 2011 protests. Authorities whitewashed his work, so now he's repeated his murals, as workshops with foreign university programs, on private walls facing public thoroughfares in Cairo and Luxor, some work too now in the US, Denmark and Germany. Look him up!
