Xaquín Marín: art and commitment in Galician cartoon
Abstract
Towards 1970 a new period of splendour starts in the Galician cartoon with Xaquín Marín as one of its major protagonists. The cartoonist from Ferrol, who draws daily for La Voz de Galicia since 1988, will carry out a work without parallel, as personal as Galician and universal, that has become him the most important cartoonist from Castelao. No one has innovated so much nor has described as him the deep changes experienced by Galicia in the last 50 years. This article delves into the keys of his particular artistic universe.Downloads
