Biography
Abdel Hadi El-Gazzar (1925–1966) was an Egyptian painter born in Alexandria and raised in Cairo. He joined Cairo’s School of Fine Arts in 1945 and worked with the Contemporary Art Group. Early paintings combine figurative scenes with symbols of popular religious life. After study at Rome’s Central Restoration Institute, his imagery increasingly included machines, technology and space travel.
