Josep M. Castellet

“Josep M. Castellet, personatge en grup” is the exhibition promoted by the Institució de les Lletres Catalanes and the Palau Robert to mark the centenary of his birth.

This exhibition, curated by Teresa Muñoz Lloret, examines the biography of Josep M. Castellet, paying particular attention to the intellectual and personal connections that shaped his professional work. The route is organised around six distinct thematic spaces that address his role as a memoirist, his process of professionalisation, his links with the European sphere, the cultural activism he carried out during the 1960s, his contribution to normalisation and his work as a publisher.

The Palau Robert is a cultural centre in Barcelona that hosts exhibitions and public activities. The visit offers visitors a detailed route through testimonies and publications by Castellet himself, examining the complicities with teachers, friends and colleagues who influenced his view of literature and of his era.

The proposal is aimed at people interested in cultural history, literary criticism and the study of the intellectual networks that took part in the reconstruction of the Catalan cultural space.
