Abraham Lacalle began his career in the 80's, in 1994 he won the scholarship for artistic promotion of the Casa de Velázquez. In his canvases there are references to great masters such as Duchamp, Picasso, Mondrian or Philip Guston using a special subjectivity in the treatment of colour. In turn, there are ironic and sarcastic references to the great artistic and literary movements of the 20th century and an acid social criticism. The painter has been exhibiting in ARCO, through different galleries, since 1987 and has been collaborating for years with the Malborough Gallery.
