Description

Mohamed Radwan Khalil (Egyptian, b. 1970) is a contemporary sculptor whose works employ a variety of mediums, mainly bronze, marble, and iron. Despite creating abstract geometric forms, Khalil's approach wields his sculptures to be accessible to the viewer. His often sleek and reflective aesthetic allows them to mirror the interiors they are placed within. 

Born in Cairo, Khalil obtained his Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts in 1993, his Master's in 2000, and his PhD in 2006 from Helwan University. His work has frequently featured in national salons, biennales, and exhibitions, including the Aswan International Symposium (1999, 2007) and the Matrouh Symposium of Granite Sculpture (2007). Internationally, Khalil participated in two Iron Sculpture Biennales (2003) and the Nanto Petra International Symposium (2003) in Italy as well as in the Aley International Sculpture Symposium in Lebanon (2000) among others. In 2004, he received the State Prize for Artistic Creativity in Egypt which brought him wider recognition. His work is held in national and private collections in Egypt, Lebanon, and Italy.

The present work is part of a series of faces rendered in bronze by the artist. The smooth, rounded work takes on an organic geometry, demonstrating the artist’s sleek aesthetic and mastery of his medium. Khalil’s work, Untitled (2014), features the abstracted soft protruding features of a young child in a contemporary minimalistic style.
