Jaume Perich (1941-1995) Humor amb ulls de gat
2020 is the 25th anniversary of the death of Jaume Perich. Perich is the most outstanding Catalan satirist of the last third of the 20th century for his lucid, biting and incisive gaze. The Historical Archive of the City of Barcelona preserves his legacy with more than 10,000 documents.
The exhibition curated by Jaume Capdevila, Kap, allows us to enter into Perich's drawings, which welcome the visitor into a world of schematic and black and white lines. Perich also knew how to make fun of himself, as several humorous biographical notes he left behind testify. A large mural allows us to contextualize Perich and his work in the chronological frame that goes from the end of the civil war to the end of the 20th century.

A selection of original drawings by Perich that reveal his penetrating view of the world around him. We will also discover a space dedicated to the Catalan satirical tradition, with original drawings by the main press cartoonists who preceded Perich, from Apel.les Maestras and Opisso, to Cesc or Muntañola. Lesser known facets of Perich are also revealed, and for the first time the public is shown sketches, scripts or working material that form part of the creative process with which he is going to confide his work.this exhibition at the Borne CCM vindicates Perich and the transforming power of humour.
