El Teneen - Kesh Malek

This chessboard made on a wall in Egypt is El Teneen's most emblematic work.

Created at the time of the Arab revolutions, we can symbolically distinguish the king on the ground surrounded by his guard, facing the pawns representing the people.

Committed, the visual of this edition of 30 copies was used to illustrate several magazines, notably for an article in Le Monde Diplomatique.
