Madonna vs Madonna, 2013

painting

Not Available

Spanish curator Paco Barragan once asked me to make a painting about how much Madonna the popstar is almost getting more popular than the christian Madonna, the VirginMary, for a show he was curating.I decided to adopt the composition of a 17th century painting which was also part of the show depictingJudith and Holophernes. In my composition Madonna the singer just beheaded Madonna the religious figure. On the floor there are the symbols of the 3 monotheistic religions plus the one of zoroastrianism from which all of them derive.
