Miguel García Vivancos (19 April 1895 in Mazarrón, Region of Murcia – 23 January 1972 in Córdoba) was a Spanish Naïve painter and anarchist.
At an early age he joined the anarchist National Labor Confederation (CNT); To actively fight against the gunmen hired by the businessmen to suppress workers' demands, he formed the group "Los Solidarios" together with Buenaventura Durruti, Francisco Ascaso, Juan García Oliver, Gregorio Jover, Ramona Berri and Aurelio Fernández.
[4] During the civil war he commanded the Harriers Column that left Barcelona to fight in the front of Huesca.
One day he began to paint scenes and landscapes of Paris on handkerchiefs to sell to American soldiers.
He made a name for himself, and in one of his exhibitions, André Breton dedicated a few lines to it, saying: The elf that Vivancos shows in his painting is the gift of those who take pleasure in discovering art for themselves; It is the invirginal consecration of life, perhaps defeated in advance, but together with the possibility of restarting it each time.Seriously ill, he returned to Spain, where he died in Córdoba on 23 January 1972.
