No foreign conflict has had a greater impact on modern British politics than the Spanish Civil War (1936-39). More than other conflicts of the 1930s in Abyssinia and China, or more recent wars in Vietnam and Bosnia, the Spanish Civil War served to galvanise political activity in Britain, in support both of the Republican government and of Franco's Nationalist rebels. Familiar aspects, such as the role of the British government, the intellectuals, and the International Brigades are reinterpreted alongside the first detailed accounts of previously neglected subjects such as right-wing and religious opinion. In addition, Buchanan shows how the Civil War acted not only as a symbol of anti-fascism for the Left, but also as a positive example of a 'New Spain' arising from the ashes of the old. Many new archival sources are used to offer a stimulating interpretation of a subject of great significance to twentieth-century Britain.

Tom Buchanan

Tom Buchanan is a freelance designer, artist and curator based in London, UK. He studied graphic design at Camberwell College of Arts and his own work has evolved through a fusion of collage, print, ink, model making and photography. He has worked for numerous advertising agencies, publishers, record labels and newspapers, including Condé Nast, The Guardian, Saatchi & Saatchi, Time Life, Random House, TBWA GGT, Time Out, INK publishing, Jonathan Cape, Thames & Hudson, Polydor records and New Scientist. In 2012 he was invited to participate in The Brighton Arts Festival and this inspired him to assemble a nationwide open submission to exhibit "Artworks that have evolved, been created within, or even escaped from a Box...". This was the start of the phenomenal "Out of the Box" series of exhibitions.
