    CHANT AVEDISSIAN (EGYPTIAN 1951-2018)

    Est: £5,000 - £7,000

    CHANT AVEDISSIAN (EGYPTIAN 1951-2018) UNTITLED oil and metallic pigment on canvas 50.5 x 50.5cm; 20 x 20in (each) 50.5 x 203.2cm; 20 x 80in (together) unframed In four parts Executed in circa late 1970s - early 1980s Property of a Lady, London Provenance Acquired directly from the artist by a Private Collection, Egypt Acquired from the above by descent to the present owner Chant Avedissian was born to a family of Armenian refugees in Boulaq, a poor suburb of Cairo, Egypt. In 1967 he graduated from the Kalousdian Armenian school. After studying fine art at the School of Art and Design in Montreal and applied arts at the National Higher School of Decorative Arts in Paris during the 1970s, Avedissian returned to Egypt. His work frequently addressed questions of national identity, traditions, and culture, fusing techniques, concepts and cosmopolitan experiences acquired abroad with the heritage of his Armenian-Egyptian background to produce striking commentaries on the world around him. Through his collaboration with the Aga Khan Foundation and noted Egyptian architect Hassan Fathy (1900-1989), Avedissian developed an interest in traditional art forms and local materials, which informed his approach to exploring his own identity. Avedissian began working with Hassan Fathy in 1981, managing his archives, cataloguing drawings, plans, and theoretical texts, a partnership that continued until Fathy’s death in 1989. During this time, he travelled the length and breadth of Egypt, photographing Fathi’s extant buildings for a book published by the Aga Khan Foundation. Fathy's perspectives on the importance of integrating genuine Egyptian art with craft revival efforts - as well as his view that combining ancient and modern art should avoid external influences - significantly influenced Avedissian’s artistic development. Many works produced by Avedissian during the 1980s reflect methods and content shaped by this association, notably he produced numerous paintings of agrarian Egypt, including sketches and studies, such as the present lot. His work is in very prominent public collections such as The British Museum (UK), Mathaf Museum of Modern Art (Qatar), National Museum of African Art - Smithsonian Institution (USA), the British Airways Collection (UK) and National Museum of Scotland, amongst others.

    CHANT AVEDISSIAN (EGYPTIAN 1951-2018) AL RAYES (NASSER) signed and inscribed in Arabic and English Al-Qāhirah / CHANT AVEDISSIAN lower centre gouache, stencil and metallic paint on card 48.5 x 67.5cm; 19 x 26 1/2in 60.1 x 80.7cm; 23 1/2 x 31 3/4in (framed) Property of a Private Collector, London Provenance Acquired from the studio of the artist in 2006 by the present owner Chant Avedissian's stencils of Gamal Abdel Nasser form a key part of his celebrated Icons of the Nile and Cairo Stencils series, which he began in 1991. These mixed-media works, often on corrugated cardboard, feature the former Egyptian President in a simplified, iconic style, frequently alongside other cultural figures like the legendary singer Om Kalsoum. Avedissian's technique involves reusing and stylising images sourced from the Egyptian illustrated press of the 1950s and 1960s, the height of the Nasser era. The repetition and recontextualisation of these images, often including symbols like the Eagle of Saladin and maps referencing Pan-Arabism, both celebrate and critically examine the visual culture of Nasserism, turning the heroic, propagandistic media portrayals into decorative, pattern-based art.

He wanted to communicate something, and it wasn’t about nostalgia or politics. It was about how artists manage to overcome tensions in order to be creative.” - Rose Issa The master of Egyptian Pop Art, Chant Avedissian fuses commercial popular culture and traditional arts in his iconic commentaries on the world around him. Avedissian was born in Cairo to an Armenian refugee family. After studying abroad at the School of Art and Design in Montreal and applied arts at the National Higher School of Decorative Arts in Paris, the artist begun a career in costume and textiles. However, in 1991, a friend commissioned him to create a portrait of renowned Egyptian singer Oum Kalthoum (see note to lot 66). This inspired his Icons of the Nile series, which sought to capture the culture, romance and glamour of mid-twentieth century cosmopolitan Egypt through portraits of influential Egyptian figures. The present subject depicts Lebanese Egyptian soprano singer and United Nations Goodwill Ambassador Majida El Roumi Baradhy (born 1956). Her father was a Melkite Christian from Tyre, South Lebanon and her mother Egyptian; her father’s family had moved to Haifa, Israel in 1921 where the El Roumi home had been established as an artistic hub. Majida was exposed to the cultural scene of the Middle East from her youth and at 14, appeared on Télé Liban where she performed songs for Umm Kulthum. Majida released her first single in 1975 Am Behlamak (I'm dreaming of you, Lebanon) in collaboration with the Lebanese poet Said Akl. Released the same year at the outbreak of the Lebanese Civil War, the song’s nostalgic and patriotic themes struck a chord with the nation. She has performed internationally at L'Olympia, Paris, where in 1998 her show was sponsored by the Lebanese First Lady Mona Herawi; at a sold-out show at the Royal Albert Hall in 1995 and at the opening of the Damascus Opera House in 2004. Alongside her music, Majida is also famed for her participation in international affairs and commitment to the welfare of Lebanese people. In 2001, she was appointed a Goodwill ambassador for the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization and has participated in numerous round-table discussions on the role of FAO ambassadors in combatting world hunger. She also attended the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia in 2012 for discussions regarding poverty in Beirut. Avedissian's portrait of Majida - who confidentially looks out at the viewer, pointing purposefully upwards in a gesture of conviction and faith - captures and immortalises her status both as a performer and philanthropist. Sourced from popular magazine imagery, Avedissian combined his stencils with a cultural and historical traditional visual language including Ottoman patterns and hieroglyphics alongside local imagery including bus tickets and birds and worked exclusively in local materials such as Egyptian corrugated cardboard. Avedissian’s devotion to handicraft, tradition and everyday experience in his artistic depictions of the cult of celebrity and the media-age sets his works distinctly apart from the aesthetics of mass-production which characterised American Pop Art.

    Chant Avedissian (Égypte, 1951-2018) Umm Kulthum Pochoir avec peinture acrylique et métallisée sur carton 50 x 70 cm Peint en 1995 signé "Chant Avedissian, le Caire" en bas au centre inscrit au dos "le Caire" *** Stencil with acrylic and metallic paint on cardboard 50x70cm Painted in 1995 signed "Chant Avedissian, Cairo" at the bottom center written on the back "Cairo" H: 50 x L: 70 cm Avedissian, the renowned Egyptian artist, excels in the art of harmoniously blending iconic figures from Egyptian history, traditional Pharaonic iconography, and the artistic essence of the 1950s and 1960s. Born in Cairo and enriched by his Armenian roots, his creative vision is deeply influenced by his love for popular art, Sufi poetry, Zen principles, and aesthetics. This unique blend of influences seamlessly merges with Western artistic techniques, giving rise to a truly distinctive artistic language. By superimposing iconic figures on meticulously stenciled backgrounds, he paints each image with meticulous care, adorning them with local pigments. The result is a collection of vibrant and emotionally evocative works. His artistic corpus pays tribute, notably, to the luminaries of the golden age of Egyptian music and cinema, featuring legendary names such as Umm Kulthum, Farid Al Atrash, Abdel Halim Hafez, Faten Hamama, and Asmahan. His art, characterized by a rich diversity of influences and a profound connection with the country's dynamic past, has been exhibited on a global scale, leaving an indelible mark on the world of art and in the Arab world. In this catalogue, we are honored to present a painting created in Cairo in 1995, a remarkable portrait of Umm Kulthum, the iconic Egyptian singer and composer, known as 'Oum ad Dounia (the mother of the world),' celebrated as a national icon in her home country. Avedissian's work beautifully captures the essence of this revered figure in Egypt's cultural history and the Arab world.
