He was a non-violent anarquist, and very engaged in workers' education matter's; e.g., he gave drawing lesson's to workers in evening school courses. His own artistical works were presented in Madrid in 1931.
Until the beginning of the spanish Second Republic he was imprisioned several times for his writings and spent some time in the later 1920s in exile in France. When the spanish Civil War began, Huesca was taken by nationalist forces soon. Acín and his wife, Conchita Monrás, were among the many victims of illegal executions at that time.
