The 1960s. The Artistic Avant-garde and Social Realism

The exhibition “Ana Peters. The 1960s. The Artistic Avant-garde and Social Realism” presents a survey of the early and most figurative period of the work of the artist Ana Peters. The display features a selection of some twenty pieces, among them works on paper and canvases, some produced using techniques such as frottage, collage and transfer, framed within the context of the female stereotypes that held sway in Francoist Spain. This group of works was shown in the exhibition “The Image of Women in Consumer Society” (Galería Edurne, 1966), the first to be held in Spain with a clear and unequivocal feminist discourse. This project has been designed exclusively for Barcelona Gallery Weekend 2022 and will only be open to the public from 15 to 22 September (throughout the day from 10.00 to 20.00).
