Description

The poster for the 1979 Festa Major de Granollers, the work of local artist Paco Merino, is an example of the cultural and creative vitality of post-Franco Catalonia. At a time of recovery of freedoms, popular festivals become spaces for celebration, identity and collective expression. This poster, with its own graphic style and rooted in the territory, reflects the importance of local culture as an element of cohesion and transmission of values. The document highlights how art and folk festivals contribute to the construction of a European identity based on cultural diversity, citizen participation and freedom of expression. It is an example of how the graphic and festive heritage is part of the shared European narrative.
