Equipo Crónica (Spain, 1964–1981) was a group of visual artists who created their works collaboratively. Their proposals—fierce critiques of the Franco dictatorship—constituted an aesthetic, political, and cultural revolution.

Manolo Valdés, the last surviving member of the group, recalls from New York—the city where he has lived and worked for over 40 years—how, through Pop Art, they created trench art that was both committed and militant.

“Alongside Valdés and the memory of Solbes, other artists explain the influence of Equipo Crónica on modern art.” – Camera & Light

“Review the “committed and militant” trajectory of this group of Valencian creators.” – Europa Press
