Martínmorales: El dibujo inagotable. A 50-Year Exhibition of Spanish Graphic Humor and Political Satire.

This exhibition celebrates the extensive career of Francisco Martínmorales, a prominent Spanish graphic humorist, spanning 50 years. It delves into his evolution as an artist and his satirical commentary on Spanish history and society, from the era of Franco's dictatorship through democratic transitions and crises.

The exhibition 'Martínmorales. El dibujo inagotable. 50 años de contribución al humor gráfico español' honors the prolific career of Francisco Martínmorales (Almería, 1946), a key figure in Spanish graphic humor alongside contemporaries like Forges and El Roto. Divided into six thematic sections, the exhibition offers a comprehensive overview of his work, highlighting his artistic evolution and his sharp, often critical, humor that reflects the social and political history of Spain over the last five decades. The sections explore Martínmorales' early artistic attempts, including sketches and clay models, through to his influential contributions to various newspapers and magazines, notably _ABC_. It showcases his commitment to freedom of expression, featuring censored drawings and legal documents related to his work during periods of political constraint. The exhibition also examines his satirical depictions of significant political figures and events, such as the Tejero coup and the political eras of Felipe González and José María Aznar, culminating with his digital drawings created before a career-interrupting accident. A special focus is also given to his mastery of caricature.

Limited capacity events such as masterclasses require prior registration at the museum's reception and have a nominal fee of 3 euros. General exhibition access details are not explicitly stated, but visitors are directed to inquire at the museum reception.
