Martínez Guerricabeitia. Collecting and political commitment

F. BELLES ARTS (UPV). Way of Vera, s/n

This show from the Polytechnic University exhibits the very important private collection Martínez Guerricabeitia dedicated to the painting of opposition to Francoism with references to the Spanish Civil War, repression and torture, cwhether the d'Team Reality, Juan Genovés or Rafael Canogar. But youwe both find work that moves away from the anti-Franco theme, like that of It's here, dealing with the isolation of contemporary man and his relationship with technology. Besides, ethe marriage formed by Jesús Martínez Guerricabeitia i Carmen García Merchant is driving d’a painting biennial that had as its first winner al 1990 to the reconnaissance Carmen Calvo, present in the exhibition with a work that distills a feminist reading. That is to say, also anti-Franco. S.M.
