Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox magazine Galerie 68 (Шаблон:Lang-ar) was an avant-garde literary magazine which was headquartered in Cairo, Egypt. The magazine existed in the period 1968–1971 with a one-year interruption and produced a total of eight issues.
History and profile
Galerie 68 was founded in Cairo by a group of ten Egyptian artists, including Ahmed Morsi and Edwar Al Kharrat.[1] The other figures linked to the magazine were Bahaa Taher, Sonallah Ibrahim, Ibrahim Aslan and Yahya Taher Abdullah.[2] The first issue was dated May–June 1968.[3] Morsi was the editor-in-chief in the early issues, but later assumed the role of artistic editor and supervisor.[1]
It frequently featured short stories, and each issue was controlled by the Ministry of Culture.[1] Ahmed Morsi reports that two ministers, Tharwat Okasha and Badr Al Din Abu Ghazi, were very flexible and tolerant about the content of the magazine.[1] However, later the license of the magazine was revoked by the ministry in 1970.[1] Although the publication resumed, it folded in 1971 after publishing eight issues.[4] Of its ten founders only Ahmed Morsi continued to work for the magazine until the last issue.[1]
Mission and content
Galerie 68 was started as a protest over the defeat of Egypt in the war against Israel in 1967[1] and offered several aesthetic solutions to this incident.[5] However, it did not function as a political organ.[3][6] Instead, the magazine was a publishing platform for those whose writings and work were not accepted for publication in the mainstream magazines.[6]
In addition, Galerie 68 was a forum for experimental literary forms.[4] The founders of the magazine declared that it would not follow the established literary genres.[6] Therefore, it did not support two dominant literary approaches in Egypt at that period: namely, the Romanticism adopted by Ihsan Abdel Quddous and Abdel Halim Abdellah and the Realism represented mainly by Naguib Mahfouz and Yusuf Idris.[7]
Galerie 68 featured translations from Vietnamese literature which was very common among the Arabic literary magazine of the period.[5]
