The "Sinsombrero"
In the 1920s, a brilliant group of women artists, writers, and thinkers shared the same avant-garde, transgressive, and intellectual spirit as their male counterparts, with whom they trained and collaborated. Their work modernized the arts and paved the way for the social and cultural recognition of women.
Women of the Lyceum Club.
They were creators, writers, and artists, but also critics, translators, editors, and active participants in the intellectual and cultural life of their time.
From various fields, they helped revitalize the arts and open up new spaces for women's presence and recognition in culture.
The women writers of the Generation of '27 created an effective support network among themselves through the Lyceum Club and an extensive exchange of letters.
Although postwar exile and censorship attempted to erase their legacy, contemporary critics have been reviving their bequest. Many books have been written about them over the past decade. In addition, they have gained widespread recognition thanks to the documentary "Las Sinsombrero" (Balló, 2015).
