Exhibition «Guillermo Lorca. La casa de arena»
The exhibition Guillermo Lorca. La casa de arena arrives at MEAM with a proposal that seems built from impossible contrasts. From 28 May to 27 September 2026, the exhibition traces a decade of Guillermo Lorca’s work, an artist who has created a visual universe where fascination and unease always move very close to one another.

About this event
In his large oils, scenes coexist that challenge any apparent balance: childhood and threat, delicacy and tension, human beings and animals sharing the same space charged with symbolism. They are images that seem suspended between dream and fable, capable of drawing the eye while also generating a strange feeling of unease.
Lorca constructs paintings in which nothing is entirely innocent. Beneath the beauty of his compositions lie power relations, hidden impulses and constant tension between nature and human presence. Each work seems to hold something that never fully reveals itself.
La casa de arena brings together one of the most recognised careers in the current art scene and proposes an experience in which painting is not only contemplated: it is also inhabited, interpreted and, at times, confronted.
