Mario Armengol, caricaturist<\/h3>\n

The exhibition Ink Against Hitler<\/em> brings together 150 original drawings by the Catalan artist Mario Armengol.<\/a> Virtually unknown until now, he was the only artist from Spain to collaborate continuously with Allied propaganda during the Second World War<\/strong>. Between 1941 and 1945, Armengol produced more than 2,000 caricatures for the British services. With great lucidity and irony, he portrayed the figures and scenarios of the most devastating conflict in modern history.<\/p>\n

His drawings, full of sarcasm, wit and a strikingly modern style, combine the harshness of the message with an aesthetic close to today\u2019s comic art. This ability to be sharply critical without losing expressive and visual force places Armengol among the major political cartoonists of his time.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/article>\n \n

\n Art, War and Memory\n <\/h4>\n
\n

War<\/strong> has been a central theme at the MNAC for many years, especially since 2021 with the opening of the galleries<\/a> dedicated to art produced during the Spanish Civil War. The Museum is engaged with current reality<\/strong>, and sadly today\u2019s world is profoundly marked by the tragedy of war and the systematic violation of human rights. We are living through a period of deep political polarisation, with a significant regression in values and rights we once believed untouchable. From October 2025 to June 2026, the MNAC is presenting new additions to the collection, three exhibitions and a programme of activities as part of a new initiative entitled \u201cArt, War and Memory\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n \n
