CHILDREN'S TALES OF THE WAR tells us about the children's editorial production carried out during the Spanish Civil War, with an emphasis on the Republican side. Starting from Freixes-Garriga's private collection, the exhibition shows us how children's tales became part of the propaganda machinery of the moment. From the Propaganda Commissariat to Editorial Estrella,from "The youngest of all", to the adaptations of classic tales such as El gato con botas, children's tales became a unique weapon in teaching the little ones the dual world of bonds and mourners who, in a way, were fratrically facing the battlefield.
Curated by Sergi Freixes and Jordi Garriga, the exhibition is a journey that stops at showing us different episodes in detail, and is structured in the following areas: Historical context, Ideological and propagandistic purpose, Examples of adapted classic tales, The Ministry of Public Instruction, the Commissariat of Propaganda of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Infantívola Library, Outstanding authors and illustrators, and finally, Children's literature on the Francoist side of the war and the postwar period.
