Youssef Sida (1922-1994). Both pieces will be auctioned under a
professional British auctioneer as well as masterpieces from the
renowned internationally acclaimed talents Adel El Siwi and Mohamed
Abla. All proceeds from the art sale from all four acclaimed artists

to be part of this great collaborative event. We invite you to view the
artworks and make your bids at the event . Please feel free to contact
me for further information. We look forward to your attendance and

ART FOR LIFE
Does one look at a painting and consider only the cost of its canvas and
of its paint? Surely during the Bulgari Art for life exhibition an
additional element is added to the mix of a valuable art piece. Life….
Not just an X factor. A tangible collaboration between the Glamorous
Italian jeweler, talented and celebrated Egyptian artists, and an
outstanding charity foundation.
To honour its on-going philanthropic commitments, Bulgari Cairo is
partnering with Safarkhan art gallery, Egyptian artists Adel El Siwi,
Mohamed Abla, Salah Abdel Kerim, Youssef Sida, Ahmad Farid and Magdi
Yacoub Foundation in order to raise funds supporting the health care of
children in need. Bulgari believes that philanthropy is the best
investment to build a prosperous, healthy, and just society. By
sponsoring the Art for Life event, the Roman jeweller wishes to increase
the positive impact the Magdi Yacoub Foundation has had on vulnerable
young lives. More than 850 surgeries, 2500 capitalizations and 13000
patients in outpatient clinic are treated yearly by the foundation,
giving back hope not only to those young boys and girls but also to many
of their friends and families…
There is a big similarity between painting a canvas and drawing a smile
on a child’s face. Both arts could look easy to achieve , but when
looking deep into them, one can realise the hard work invested to make
it happen.
