Welcome to the Lost & Found archive, featuring photographs and reports from our evenings as well as information about the participating artists. The artists’ websites are published here so they can be contacted directly. All flyers have been photographed; their materiality is visible, with corners, folds, and relief retaining their tactile quality on screen.This site takes the form of a growth model and behaves as a work in its own right: it is always, and never, finished. The site functions as an archive and is not updated regularly; if you wish for a change or update, you may submit a request.
Since 1997, over 200 sessions of stray images and sound have been organised. Artists, writers, scientists and musicians present work in progress, experiment or present work that doesn't fit into their oeuvre (yet). A specific and unique stage for diverse and hybrid works which don't fit comfortably into galleries or museums.
filmmaker (EG)
This fiction debut of the young Sherif is based on a theater play of the eighties by the Italian Dario Fo.
When, in the morning, Sanaa (played by the famous Hend Sabry) searches for the missing keys to her apartment. She connects with sudden and unpleasant thoughts, past moments that she has been trying to forget. Will this unpleasantness pass, allowing her to 'rise and shine' all over again?
