The Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando presents a screening and presentation of the documentary 'Equipo Crónica. Arte de trinchera'. This film delves into the work of Equipo Crónica, a pivotal group of Spanish artists—Rafael Solbes (1940-1981), Juan Antonio Toledo (1940-1995), and Manolo Valdés (1942)—who created their art collaboratively between 1964 and 1981. Originating from Valencia, they captured the essence of their era with fierce critiques of the Franco dictatorship, achieving international renown. Their artistic approach, heavily influenced by Pop Art, merged 'Mass Media' icons with classical art history to comment on contemporary reality, creating what is described as 'art from the trenches'—committed and militant. The documentary features reflections from Manolo Valdés, the last living member, and other experts and artists, examining the group's enduring influence and the question of art's power to effect societal change. The film is described as a visually potent, engaging, and content-rich exploration of one of Spain's most significant 20th-century contemporary art movements.
