What's it about

The artist José Luis Rey Vila (Cádiz, 1900 - Paris, 1983), better known as Sim, left one of the most vivid testimonies of the drama of the Spanish Civil War, specifically in Barcelona. Within the line initiated years ago by the Museum, focused on the Civil War, nearly fifty drawings by this artist will be exhibited, which have recently been acquired by the National Museum. All of them were created during the war period, of which Sim was one of the most prominent chroniclers. These are creations of great quality and expression, which gather diverse records of the armed conflict, from the cruelty of the battle between soldiers to the evacuations of the civilian population. This acquisition fits into a policy of growth of the Civil War collections, whether through acquisitions or donations, as is the case of the work by artist Helios Gómez, carried out during 2025. These new entries to the collection, both in terms of works and artists, enrich the war funds with a view to the expansion of the Museum, where this topic will have a relevant space. Curatorship: Eduard Vallès
