Curatorial context

Ramón Gómez de la Serna, an intellectual force renowned for his agile thinking and inexhaustible work, represented a unique creative generation. Between 1930 and 1935, he published a series of illustrated articles-greguerías in the magazine _Blanco y Negro_ titled _Cifras de París, Cifras de Alemania, Cifras de ahora, Greguerías ilustradas_, and _Greguerías._ These texts were accompanied by drawings made by the author himself, making this series an exceptional collection within both Gómez de la Serna's extensive body of work and the literature of the press. The ABC Museum of Drawing and Illustration holds three hundred and fourteen original drawings by Ramón Gómez de la Serna. For this exhibition, one hundred of these drawings have been selected and are displayed chronologically according to their publication date in _Blanco y Negro_. However, the exhibition encourages visitors to explore freely, embracing Gómez de la Serna's spirit that eschewed order and static arrangements, allowing for a personalized journey through his art.
