Rabab Nemer (1939–2025) was a distinguished Egyptian visual artist renowned for her evocative black-and-white compositions that explored the human condition through intricate tonal variations. Born in Alexandria, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Alexandria University in 1963 and later achieved a professorship in arts from the Academy of San Fernando in Madrid in 1977.

Throughout her career, Nemer held significant positions, including Director General of the General Administration of Fine Arts at the Cultural Palaces in Alexandria. She was an active member of the Syndicate of Fine Artists, the Alexandria Atelier, and the Cairo Atelier. Her work was showcased in numerous solo exhibitions both domestically and internationally, with notable shows in Italy, Spain, Kuwait, and Germany. She also participated in esteemed international biennials such as Sharjah, Alexandria, and Jeddah.

Nemer's artistic contributions were recognized with several prestigious awards, including the Merit Award in Painting from the General Exhibition of Fine Arts in 1981 and 1982, the Jury Prize at the 8th Cairo International Biennale in 1998, and the Alexandria Biennale Award for Mediterranean Countries in 2007. Her legacy endures through a body of work that continues to inspire and influence the art community.
