On the Venice Biennale in the Pavilion of Egypt you can see the works of Ahmed Basiony. Sadly the artist died this year on 28 January at the Tahrir Square in Cairo while filming the revolution. Basiony’s work for the Biennale 30 Days of Running in the Place is the play of a video documentation to a project that had taken place a year ago. The pavilion was full of people but nobody wanted to talk to each other. Watching the film of his performance and at the same time his documentation of the Tahrir Square fights made people speachless. 

This is what you see first when you enter the Pavilion of Egypt.
