Overview
- Spread across eleven rooms in the museum’s Nouvel building, the installation follows a chronological route that connects Uslé’s “families” of works and phases.
- The presentation includes more than 100 paintings alongside 170 photographs and is scheduled to run through spring 2026.
- Uslé has permanently deposited three of the exhibited pieces into the Reina Sofía’s collection after years on loan.
- Curated by Ángel Calvo Ulloa, the survey traces a path from an early, dark New York period to later explorations in color, geometry and lyrical abstraction.
- Key context includes his 1985 Fulbright move to New York, a life split since 1987 between Manhattan and Saro, and broad recognition such as Spain’s 2002 National Prize for Plastic Arts and holdings in MoMA, Tate Modern and the Centre Pompidou.
