Galerie 68

Galerie 68 (Arabic: جاليري 68, romanized: Gallīrī 68) was an avant-garde literary magazine which was headquartered in Cairo, Egypt.

Galerie 68 was founded in Cairo by a group of ten Egyptian artists, including Ahmed Morsi and Edwar Al Kharrat.

[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] 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.

[7] Galerie 68 featured translations from Vietnamese literature which was very common among the Arabic literary magazine of the period.
