About Gamal El Seguini
1917 - 1977
In 1937, Gamal El Seguini won the Mahmoud Moukhtar Prize for sculpture, which was created by intellectual and feminist Huda Shaarawi in 1935 to commemorate the death of the renowned sculptor, Mahmoud Mokhtar (1891 - 1934). El-Siguini graduated in 1938, and in 1945 founded the Group Sawt al-FannÄn (The Voice of the Artist) that promoted young Egyptian artists and inspired the art critic Muhammad Sidqi al-Gabakhangi to establish a monthly art review with the same name.
