La Corrida

LA CORRIDA Acrylic Painting 2015


LA CORRIDA is a painting by the artist ousseau Ammar in Tunis, Bullfighting scene was exhibited at the Kharedine Palace in Tunis
The boards write a real resistance of bullfighting bulls against the matador
a dangerous scene under the eyes of several spectators, it translates the curiosity of the observer in front of the torture.
the act is an ancient culture in the west, maybe we can say that some people follow the game just fun to follow the tradition and « habit », for others it is a strange pleasure, so that the torture for qualqun is a happiness for another, also the scene shows different but missing grimaces, in the end the animal fights to survive and the man desired by the torture on the other side,
this perspective shows us an otic on daily life and the betrayal of the political human being towards a living being who has no power but who is also an animal being for man in his life.
