Nietzsche, the great German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, philologist, scholar of Latin and Greek whose work has exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history, is portrayed here in this artwork. The artist imagines Nietzsche this character as an intellectual who traps himself on his own ideology that prioritises on status, position, power, titles of the world, neglecting the spirituality matters. He is too proud of his intelligence and intellectual stimulation that influences the mass public with his theories. The last door to the spirituality dimension couldn’t be opened by him because he is only looking for ‘answers’ and ‘truth’ through his mind capability and thoughts. The artist painted the lost, struggling figures (at the bottom of the painting) in a room, in a chaotic atmosphere... a reflection of being stuck, creating an unease feeling... Ahmad Fuad Osman’s mid-career survey exhibition, At The End Of The Day Even Art Is Not Important, at the National Art Gallery Malaysia was a great success, positioning him as the leading contemporary artist in Malaysia.
