01 de Feb 1984 - 31 de Mar 1984
The presentation in the Museo Nacional de Arte of the Cuixart exhibition, in the framework of the days of Catalonia in Mexico, in the year of 1984 during February, was the basis of a cultural exchange between Spain and Mexico, and the basis of a reflection on our own diversity and national identity. Upon these bonds that have always joined Spain with Mexico, a new relationship that proposed the discovery of related tasks pointed towards a future in which both countries had a lot to say and give together to the world was built.
The Cuixart exhibition took place at a time when Mexico recounted its achievements and its possibilities since it was organized as the country that was until then, in the 1920s, during the post-revolution. In that recount, it was, of course, culture, and in culture, one of its most illustrious and universal sectors: painting. More than one Mexican predicted that the presence of Cuixart would presage a closer contact between both artistic hemispheres. It should be noted as significant that it was precisely in Barcelona, in 1921, where David Alfaro Siqueiros published his three appeals of current orientation to the painters and sculptors of the American generation, one of the fundamental documents for the emergence of our muralism.
