From the late 1960s to the 1990s, the main Spanish authors worked with Íbero-Suiza. Eusebio Sempere was the first of them to learn this technique. The artists, with a clear anti-Franco commitment, used screen printing as a means to disseminate both their ideological concerns and their art.
For decades, the family of José Llopis has preserved part of the printed material, from prints dedicated to numbered and signed proofs, posters, workshop proofs, color proofs and incomplete prints that were left out of the edition. Material that today allows us to understand the creative process of the artists and the workshop technicians and that is of great interest to specialists and researchers in the field of contemporary graphic work.
The exhibition is composed of 46 pieces, two of them from the MACA. 44 screen prints and 1 original work. In addition to documentary material, letters, drawings, screens, photographs.... and a selection of posters also printed in screen printing.
