"Cronicas del Desafio"
  Parte 1 ("Los fantasmas del pasado")

(Chronicles of the challenge Part 1, " the ghosts of the past")
​Chronicles of the challenge are figurative depictions of the events portrayed by the media channels about the Catalonia issues during the months of September, October and November 2017.

The first part  “Fantasmas del pasado’ (Ghosts of the past)  consist of a series of 6 painting that are in relation of the origin of the Catalan identity, the titles of the paintings are dates of events significant to Catalonia and independence attempts; in chronological order the paintings are:
 “1479” as the year when The marriage of Ferdinand II of Aragon -- a region including Catalonia at the time -- to Isabel of Castile unites the two regions, bringing Catalonia under the crown. The two ghosts are these characters that keep on reappearing through the series.
“1714”: Barcelona falls to Spanish and French forces in the War of Succession and its autonomous institutions are dissolved.
1932: Spain's parliament grants Catalonia a statute of autonomy granting it broad powers over its internal affairs. Both Spanish and Catalan are recognised as official languages in the region.
October 6, 1934: Left-wing republican Lluis Companys declares the region "a Catalan state in the federal republic of Spain," which lasts just a few hours before he is arrested.
October 25, 1979: Catalans approve in a referendum a new autonomy statute for greater powers in areas such as healthcare, education and culture.
September 20, 2012: Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy rejects Catalan president Artur Mas's call for greater tax-and-spend powers for Catalonia. Five days later, Mas calls a snap regional election promising to hold a referendum on Catalonia's future.
