Guest of Honor


Each year, Art Cairo designates a Guest of Honor, an artist whose lifelong dedication to the arts has shaped the cultural landscape of the region.
This gesture offers a focused encounter with a singular voice, inviting visitors to reflect on a legacy that continues to inform the present and resonate across generations.
This year, Art Cairo is honored to welcome Guirguis Lotfy as the Guest of Honor.
​Guirguis Lotfy, born in Alexandria in 1955 is a celebrated artist known for seamlessly blending ancient Egyptian and Coptic aesthetics with contemporary expression. His stylised figures, luminous palettes, and icon-inspired compositions offer a unique vision where Egypt’s past and present coexist in harmony.
