City in eMotion by Gustavo Forselledo - Exbhibition

Sat, Oct 17 · 6:00 PM Gallery 16Ten · Georgetown

Dive into Gustavo Forselledo’s vibrant world where city life meets emotion in a stunning art exhibition. Gustavo Forselledo is an Uruguayan-American artist inspired by Latin American expressionism and universal constructivism in the style of Uruguayan masters Carlos Páez Vilaró and Joaquín Torres García. His work seeks to capture the emotional energy of urban landscapes, distilling movement, memory, and atmosphere into undulating strokes and bright colors. He sees cities as shifting, breathing entities of chaos and rhythm. Through expressive gestural lines and a dynamic interplay of color and contrast, he attempts to translate the fleeting moments of the city onto the surface of his canvases. Using acrylic and ink on canvas, he explores the tension between structure and spontaneity, where different architectures meet the unpredictable pulse of human existence. Each of his pieces is a visceral response to the urban environment. His paintings are not precise urban representations but emotional landscapes, where abstraction and realism collide to capture the soul and rhythm of the metropolis. The exhibition brings Forselledo’s art, which invites viewers to experience “Cities in eMotion”; not as static places, but as ever-changing stories, told through the language of color, movement, and expression. “Cities in eMotion” will be on view from October 17th to November 7th, 2026. Reception October 17th from 6 PM - 8:30 PM

Welcome to AskAlice

Hi, I'm Alice.

I go out a lot around DC, Virginia and Maryland, and I got tired of losing hours to Instagram Stories and a dozen venue calendars just to find out what was happening. So I built this to do that watching for me — real, confirmed events pulled from hundreds of sources, sorted so you can find your night instead of hunting for it.
