Frith Street Gallery presents an exhibition of “New paintings” by Juan Uslé from 3 March to 21 April, 2006. The showcase will provide a rare opportunity to see the greater part of work from one of the most important painters working today. Juan Uslé belongs to a generation of international painters who brought abstraction back to critical attention at the end of the eighties. Many of his paintings lead the viewer into a labyrinthine space in which Uslé's exact articulation seems to point in a specific direction while noiseless, paradoxically, leaving the way open to the viewer's interpretation. Uslé layers, his canvases with veils of pigment, wash and medium sometimes forms partly articulated, then left equivocal - striking a balance between what is revealed and what is hidden.
