Sacremento Bath Houses

In the shadow of the bull


"Friday evening, August 13, broke out the Fiesta. There is no other word for it." Something like this would Ernest Hemingway the beginning of the Feria of Malaga described. Since last weekend, the südandalusische capital is in a state of emergency. And he is right in the middle. El toro bravo ! No marquee where its symbol is not found. No street without a cartel de toros . No sherry glass without the Osbornestier, a newspaper without a multi-page report on the world of bulls and death in the afternoon at the corrida de toros in Malagueta .

In parallel, there is an exhibition in the birthplace of Pablo Picasso: Tauromaquias . I had written this before. And now it is in the City Council Office environment a further exhibition, which also deals with the issue of Tauromaquia . To see photographs of Javier Arroyo, entitled "La sombra del toro " are.


The bull and its surroundings. The photographer is the toro bravo full four years on the dehesas accompanied his life observed in nature, the pastures, the earth, the sky, light as shadows and the way people interact with him. The gestures, the reactions, the sensitivity and care. And he's the main character, is the center. El toro bravo . Respect, respect and recognition, all reflect the attitude in these pictures.


"I went a way closer to the viewer with normal activities of toros de lidia Here I go through four stations." Landscape "," The Details "," Man "and" The Bull. The bull breeding of the sons of Celestino Cuadri and breeder Fernando Cuadri helped me ideas to develop motives to transcend the reflected now in the exhibition. Unforgettable four years of work. I am much obliged to you. "

The Councillor Araceli González surpised now been the second time with a taurine exhibition. 2016 Málaga would be the cultural capital of Europe, and she is as pretty safe. The toro bravo one of them.
