British artists’ reactions to Spanish Civil War in UK exhibition

SPAIN’S civil war inspired a whole generation of writers and poets, but the involvement of British artists is less widely-known.

But now a new exhibition in the UK, entitled Conscience and Conflict: British Artists and the Spanish Civil War, casts a light on artists’ reactions to the war.

The exhibition – which juxtaposes never-seen works alongside world-famous loans – includes pieces from photographs to landscapes, from bloodied sketches to campaign posters.

Held at Pallant House in Chichester, the exhibition runs until February 15.
