Egyptian revolution and the arts.  Graffiti on the streets of Cairo.



Artists in Egypt took to the streets to express their frustration with the old political system of repression.


January 25th is the date the revolution in Egypt began.  This poster calls for equality.

Breaking the bonds. January 25th, 2011.

 
Liberation through struggle. 
 
This is a small sample of street art that is found in all the cities of Egypt.  These particular photos were taken in the Zamelek district of Cairo.
