Cool women cooling themselves off wearing hot clothes in hotter climates are the subjects of “Echo From Cairo,” Egyptian painter Hani Rashed’s new show at Dubai’s B-21 Gallery. The simple, cartoon-inspired images of faceless girls trying to find relief from oppressive temperatures represent “simple people, with whom I could engage in a way others don’t. They are people that attracted me, people I felt close to,” the artist says. Although it’s unlikely that anyone would want to be close to anyone else during the summer (this is one is proving especially scorching) in Dubai, besides in a nicely chilled shopping mall. Or art gallery.
