"Ronda Goyesca "presents the newest work of Spanish photographer
Aitor Lara (born 1974), documenting the astounding Corrida
Goyesca--a legendary bullfight that takes place every year in the
Andalusian city of Ronda, the oldest bull ring in Spain. Lara's
exquisite black-and-white photographs record all aspects of the
spectacle, in which bullfighters, bulls and the audience equally
participate, narrating the occasion as it unfolds: the
horse-and-carriage processions before the fights; the toreadors
praying at altars, or steeling themselves in a hastily snatched
moment of privacy; their extraordinary regalia, and that of their
wives; their walk along the lonely passageway to the bullring; the
wide open space of the ring and the audience tense with
expectation; and of course, the moment of confrontation between
bull and toreador, which Lara shoots both close up and from
ringside, while audience members gesticulate in exultation,
encouragement or fear.
