A visit to the Art exhibition in Oujda

Review on the Art exhibition “A  l'angle des possibles"
6th edition of the festival of visual art “ Orienta “


The art exhibition “A  l'angle des possibles" is a festival which is planned by the Orienta in Oujda ,throughout the months of  April and May, in many spots around Oujda. The exhibition was really interesting, all my colleagues showed their artistic side while watching different pieces of art. Each painting had it’s charm ,and enchantment. The guides did their best to guide the whole group from one place to another in an ordered way. In addition, they did their best to explain each artistic work in an easy way ,so that everyone can understand.
We first went to the art gallery, where most of Aajour’s works were. Followed by the French institute of the oriental where we saw a 15mins movie called Le Park by Randa Maroufi ,and then we went to villa verte which unfortunately we found close. We ended our beautiful journey visiting Omar ibn Abdelaziz high school ;which was the last station.
Moreover, the exhibition contained almost 50 artworks including; photographs, paintings ,and videos performances installations several produced especially for the exhibition, made by 35 artists from different countries ;which were engaged in the 6th edition of the international festival of contemporary art orienta. But the one who captured my attention the most was the one and only Ahmed Aajour; whose work is really fascinating .


Aajour's  paintings had an inner content that can’t be understood unless you read about him ,and his works, he always tried to touch a person’s soul in his work. Most of his artistic works are about things he witnessed and went through in his life such as: the colonial times where the Spanish invaders colonized the Rif region ,and the Aajour’s plane which is a historical.
 The plane represents the 15 of the July 1956 ,a historical landmark event. Which combined the liberation hero of His Majesty King Mohammed V, God rest his soul, with the people of  Nador in their first visit to the King, after the independence of Morocco. The plane is made of iron and wood, the artist used to renovate the plane ,whenever it needed to be fixed, it is sufficient to know that it’s 60 year old. This was the way that the talented Aajour embodied the return of the plane from the exile ,and of course his artistic work was part of the ceremony that was held in honor of the visit of His Majesty King Mohammed V, God rest his soul.

Sometimes I wish I can fly and disappear from this world because of what people do. But seeing my friends and the people who help others make me feel that the world still have a chance to change and that these people can turn the world to a better place .

Unfair life

They talk about children all the time , about their rights and values they say that a child must live a happy life ,and be educated But the question is : Do all children have that? Are they really treated well?? who can really answer that; the government or society??! Let's pretend they gave one; what will they say ? of course they will say that we are doing our best... which best ??? letting poor children work in bad conditions, is that the education that they deserve? or beating  and treating them as animals is that a kind of their rights? This is a shame on us !! only because of not having money to provide and pay for their studies we abandon them , but we are supposed to have organisations for such problems ,but in vane. Their carelessness made them blind ; they see everything but they just ignore it. but what's the fault of those children? they are still little kids we should give them love ,and take care of them not omitting them like they are out o...

Real meaning of FRIENDSHIP !!

Friendship!! You can find a lot of friends in your life  but can you find good ones who will stay besides you ?? I don't think so,  their are only a few people in this world who will be TRUE friends You will not know them intel you have a problem  and you need someone to help you.. Then, no one will be besides you But when you feel down ,and almost give up You will find one person !! Only ONE This person who will help to stand on your feet In this time it's rarely when you find persons like this one This true friend will fill your life with joy and happiness And let you forgot everything which is bad and put a SMILE on your face Because you know that this true friend will never let you down and always honest with you That's what true friends do, they help each other ,love each other and tace care of each other This is what my True friends look like... :) Peace & Love <3
