UISO ALEMANY

Nato a Valencia nel 1941. 

“Un uomo” afferma Uiso Alemany “affronta il mondo in questa maniera – mostrandomi come  splendido paesaggio una parte di deserto – con una miriade di domande a cui non riuscirà mai a rispondere: Qual’ è la mia missione? Perché questa terribile solitudine? Quando mi sveglierò mai? Tutti i timori dell’uomo, tutta l’aridità delle sue frustrazioni, tutta la magia della scoperta di essere parte dell’universo… ho provato a dipingere tutto questo nei miei quadri tra le dune di terre africane.”

(Uiso Alemany in Ma. Ángeles Arazo: “Uiso Alemany. Pasión por la materia” in Las Provincias, Valencia, January 25, 1990, p. 26.)
