If Giza has ever inspired your creativity, now is your chance to turn that inspiration into art. Gizapolitan has opened submissions for its latest Giza Prints Pop-Up Exhibition, inviting artists and illustrators to celebrate one of Egypt’s most iconic cities through original print designs. Here’s everything you need to know before applying.
A Celebration of Giza Through Art
The Giza Prints Pop-Up Exhibition is a curated showcase dedicated to artwork inspired by Giza. Rather than focusing only on the famous pyramids, artists are encouraged to capture the city’s neighbourhoods, architecture, landmarks, culture, and everyday life. The result is a collection that reflects both Giza’s rich history and its modern character.
A Platform for Creative Talent
The exhibition offers artists, illustrators, graphic designers, and printmakers the opportunity to have their work displayed and sold through Gizapolitan. It gives emerging creatives valuable exposure while allowing visitors to discover fresh interpretations of one of Egypt’s most beloved cities.
How to Apply?
Artists can submit their original designs by following the technical requirements provided by Gizapolitan and emailing their work to studio@cairopolitan.com. The submission deadline is 23 August, giving creatives time to put together their strongest concepts before selections are made.
Inspired by Local Identity
Like Cairopolitan’s projects celebrating Cairo, Gizapolitan aims to showcase Giza beyond the postcards. Whether inspired by bustling streets, hidden architectural gems, local traditions, or historic monuments, artists are encouraged to present their own unique perspective on the city.
More Than Just an Exhibition
Beyond displaying artwork, the Giza Prints Pop-Up Exhibition creates a space where art, culture, and storytelling come together. Visitors can browse a collection of limited-edition prints while supporting local artists and discovering new creative voices. Whether you’re an experienced illustrator or an emerging artist looking for your next opportunity, Gizapolitan’s Giza Prints Pop-Up Exhibition is a chance to celebrate Giza through creativity. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect canvas to tell the city’s story, this might be it.
