Essays
- Since his graduation in 1976, Khalil resumed exploring many art directions, especially ‘ metaphysical’ one, where he was taken with ‘time and place’ concept, expressing it with colours and natural mediums. Then, (1979 –1982) he experienced the ‘symbolic’ direction, when that phase marked with consequent changes in the Egyptian environment. - Apparently, (1982 –1989) was a phase of researches, technical art treatment and the preparatory phase of abstraction, that resumed during his residence in Italy. - Thence, he got the attention of Italian critics to name his works as “Symphony-Music harmony – Musical Colours”; such phase that last till 1995. Whence, he moved to more developed techniques in colour and space, to be an absorbed view of the Egyptian environment in identity, legacy, modernity, and post-modernity. Finally, our artist considered Alexandria as a window, where he looked at contemporary world and South Valley as his identity.
