Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía says that 'Untitled' (1992) has left the 'Dulce venganza' exhibition and is now appearing across several Madrid metro stations. The work is being installed at Cuzco, Guzmán el Bueno, Retiro, O’Donnell, Legazpi and Tirso de Molina, placing the piece directly into one of the city’s most familiar everyday transit environments.
The museum describes the move as a way of integrating the work into the urban landscape, so that passersby encounter it outside the gallery setting and notice art in ordinary public space. No additional details were provided in the source material about the work’s format, installation method or the duration of its presentation in the stations.
The shift extends the life of a work previously presented in the museum’s 'Dulce venganza' exhibition, but the source material does not specify the exhibition’s dates or whether the metro presentation is tied to a separate programme. What is clear is that the piece is being distributed across multiple stations rather than confined to a single site.
Reina Sofía, based in Madrid, is one of Spain’s major contemporary art institutions and regularly presents collection-based projects alongside exhibitions. In this case, the museum’s own collection work is being carried from the exhibition space into public infrastructure, where commuters will encounter it as part of the daily flow of the city.
The listed stations span different parts of Madrid’s metro network, including Cuzco, Guzmán el Bueno, Retiro, O’Donnell, Legazpi and Tirso de Molina. The source material does not indicate whether the work appears in the same way at each location or how viewers will interact with it, only that it now appears at these stations as part of its move into the urban environment.
