| M94 – RONDE D’UN MINOTAURE AVEC UNE CHIENNE ANTHRO | | Size (HxW) : | 50x50 cm | | Style : | Figurative Style | | Technic : | Acrylic on canvas | | Theme : | Bulls or bullfighting | | Category : | Painting | | Price : | Euros 1250 | | Year : | 2008 | | Desc. : | This painting is the first of the series Minoan. It is not surprising that begins with a minotaur. Since his well-known mythological origin comes from the island of Crete. This subject is clearly addressed many times in other tables. The Minotaur presented in an exaggerated twist to the limit of anamorphosis is a recurring theme on Minoan seals. When the anthropomorphic dog, whose significance is not known, it has been revealed through sacred Minoan rare stamps found on the island. What is less clear is the association of these two beings in a common discussion. Nothing surprising, since it is a novel staging desired by your artist. Fear that this union is not against nature, when one knows the number of monsters and demons that have been generated in this time! |
