Palau Robert hosts the exhibition El Ciervo. 75 Years of Free Thinking and Culture, curated by Sergi Álvarez Riosalido. The exhibition is a joint initiative between the magazine El Ciervo—the oldest cultural publication in Catalonia and Spain—and the Direcció General de Difusió of the Generalitat de Catalunya.
The exhibition celebrates the 75th anniversary of this magazine of thought and culture, founded in Barcelona in 1951. Since then, El Ciervo has been a space of freedom, debate, and reflection. In the midst of Franco’s dictatorship, it forged its own path with an independent voice committed to values such as dialogue, justice, freedom of expression, and democracy. Over more than seven decades, the magazine has welcomed voices from a wide variety of fields and ideologies, building an open and plural community around culture, politics, science, religion, and the major human questions.
The exhibition is organized into three spaces and five main themes that trace the key moments in the magazine’s trajectory, while also highlighting the rich documentary heritage accumulated over these 75 years. As defined in its own pages, El Ciervo is “a calm way of looking at the world, with a critical spirit free of acrimony and with a genuine will to understand others.”
