Overview
- The survey spans eleven galleries in the museum’s Nouvel building and runs through April 20.
- Three works shown in the exhibition have been newly deposited into the museum’s permanent collection after years on loan.
- Curator Ángel Calvo Ulloa frames Uslé’s practice within lyrical abstraction focused on rhythm, pulse, and memory.
- Early dark paintings reflect his 1985 move to New York on a Fulbright and the lingering imprint of the 1960 Elorrio shipwreck near his Cantabrian home.
- Uslé’s international stature includes the 2002 Premio Nacional de Artes Plásticas and holdings in MoMA, Centre Pompidou, Tate Modern, and other major collections.
