		Dau al Set within the background of the Abelló Museum An exhibition commissioned by Arnau Puig on the backgrounds of the so-called Dau al Set group, of which painters Joan Ponç, Antoni Tàpies, Modest Cuixart, Joan-Josep Tharrats and poet Joan Brossa, were all plastic components. Due to Abelló’s curiosity, interest and collection efforts the museum has a considerable amount of their works since the beginning. The exhibition also showed Joan Abelló’s contemporary works on the facts, which show the connections with the actions of the Dau al Set members and a panoramic view of the artists that even though being contemporaries of the group members, due to physical personal encounter matters and given the difficulties to connect under those circumstances, could not become part of the group despite being innovative creators.

		Humberto Rivas Huellas 13th March 2007 - 15th April 2007 It shows the marks left by the time that went by since the Spanish Civil War in the faces of those who lived through it in the walls that sheltered or that, on the contrary, were the unwitting accomplices of executions and murder. Belchite, Corbera d’Ebre or Figueres are some of these war scenarios that were miraculously forgotten, that succumbed to time and that are in themselves a true memorial to what has happened and to what we are still nowadays.
