"Repression" is a metal sculpture created in 2002 by the French artist Marc Lucchesi.
"Repression, elected Cow of the year during the 1968 fair".
“Death to cows, death to idiots!” As a committed act, this sculpture aims to pass on to future generations the idea of struggling to break taboos (as was the case in France in 1968). The message advocates non-violence. It is repression “at rest”, looking peacefully at the protest.
