Maher Hassan Aboelenen

Maher was born in Cairo, in 1956.

He studied Clinical Psychology in Ain Shams University with postgraduate studies in

Sweden. Being a citizen of the world and a restless mind, he travelled a lot around

the world studying the Man.

He moved to Greece in 1982 in order to study Ancient Greek Philosophy and he was

enchanted by “Megas” N. Kazantzakis, as Maher calls him. So he stayed here and he

religions of the world, the human behaviors, and the deep acquaintance of the

In recent years he lives and works as a Clinical Psychologist in Thessaloniki.

He has held many personal art exhibitions in Thessaloniki and Athens as well as in
