4 regards sur l’exil espagnol

Signage for an outdoor photography exhibition in the Raymond VI garden in Toulouse.

As part of the celebrations for the 80th anniversary of the Retirada, the Toulouse Municipal Archives wanted to highlight the views of four photographers on Spanish Republicans who found exile in France after the Civil War.

Witnesses and sometimes actors, they immortalized the distress, but also the dignity and resilience of these uprooted populations. Jean Dieuzaide, Germaine Chaumel, Enrique Tapia Jimenez and Marius Bergé, Toulousains by birth or adoption, professionals or amateurs, have all been confronted, at some point in their lives, with the drama that unfolded at the gates of their city, and its consequences.

The exhibition graphics were designed by Vif Design, using Tme by Benoît Bodhuin and Lack by Velvetyne.
