I was born in Egypt, in a small village caled Aht' Repan. In the age of 4 my parents left Egypt and seeked political asylum in Italy. There my father won the lottery and with the money he gained he started a small bussiness selling antiques. By age 12, i had already a deep knowledge of contemporary art. When I was 19 I went to Florence, where I worked in a museum for nightwatch security In the daytime i was painting works of contemorary art. Ten years later, I went to NY, and i opened my own art gallery. I could go on forever, but this is as short as it can get.
