'Ink Against Hitler': Mario Armengol, Cartoonist in World War II

This political satire exhibition showcases the horrors of war through the graphic humor of cartoonist Mario Armengol. 'Ink Against Hitler' presents the discovery of the only Catalan and Spanish artist who worked extensively for British and Allied propaganda during World War II. From 1941 to 1945, Mario Armengol Torrella (Sant Joan de les Abadesses, 1909-Nottingham, 1995) created around two thousand cartoons for the British Ministry of Information against the Third Reich and the Axis powers, published in newspapers and magazines across allied and neutral countries, from New Zealand to Haiti. The exhibition will feature a selection of original works preserved by the artist and his family, making it one of the largest collections worldwide of political satire illustrations from the most terrible conflict in history.
