Summary
Selection of 33 drawings made by the Valencian artist Francisco Marco Chilet (Valencia , Spain 1903-1977), who defended Republican causes with a distinguished military career. At the end of the Spanish Civil War, during the retreat, he was among the Spanish refugees interned in the camps improvised by the French government to receive them. These drawings, executed with few resources and in inhospitable conditions, are the graphic proof of a traumatic experience and record the extraordinary formal rigor of the artist when recording his experience. Witness to the suffering of the displaced and defender of the rights taken away, he projects his interpretation of the horrible living conditions in the barracks into his interpretations. On July 26, 1940, he entered Mexican territory as an exile and was naturalized the following year. Once established in Mexico where he joined the newspapers Excélsior and El Popular as an illustrator and caricaturist, to later work as an art director and set designer in a hundred films of the Mexican golden cinema.
