520			_aPublished with exhibition June-Aug 2015. French-Algerian artist Djamel Tatah was born in Saint-Chamond in 1959, a town close to Lyon where his parents migrated in the 1950s. Despite difficult living conditions, Tatah managed to join the local art school in Saint-Étienne in 1981 where he forged his path as a professional painter and developed the formal principles of his distinct artistic output. This exhibition presents twelve mesmerizing oil and wax paintings, monumental in size and typically untitled, produced in the last year. The subject omnipresent in Tatah's works is the silent figure - the mirror of all humankind, pain, solitude, melancholy, war and peace.
