Hatless women
Beyond the Generation of ’27: the women who reshaped modern Spain.
Author: Carolina Corvillo, Mercedes Palacios, Jen Del Pozo, Irina Hirondelle, Irene Gala, and Noelia F.
Synopsis:
In the turbulent Spain of the 1920s, a quiet rebellion took shape: “sinsombrerismo”—a spirit of free thought, artistic freedom, and defiance of convention.
Inspired by this legacy, this graphic novel restores the voices of five remarkable women artists—Maruja Mallo, Marga Gil, Tórtola Valencia, Ernestina de Champourcin, and Josefina de la Torre—whose contributions to the avant-garde were long overlooked despite sharing their era with Lorca, Dalí, and Buñuel.
Written by Carolina Corvillo and illustrated by Mercedes Palacios, Jen Del Pozo, Irina Hirondelle, Irene Gala, and Noelia F., this anthology celebrates their enduring legacy through five unique graphic stories.
