This publication is the documentation of the art in public space project Shaware3na that was presented by Mahatat for contemoprary art from January to June 2012 in Cairo and Giza, Egypt.
Images and short texts will give readers an idea about the different projects that took place under the umbrella of Shaware3na. Inside the magazine will be found a small newspaper, which is the outcome of an open space conference on the topic "Accessibility of art in Egypt through art in public space and community art". The conference concluded Shaware3na while hoping to initiate new projects, reflections, and connections. Around thirty people discussed and shared ideas on the topic for two days. With some of the participants we selected certain themes and concepts that were discussed over and overagain, to contest, challenge, and reflect upon in the newspaper.
