L e first memory was brought to us by Argentine Gustavo Germano, who came to Paris with his photographic exhibition AUSENCIA.
part of the 61st Conference of Human Rights which was held at UNESCO headquarters in PARIS, the Culture Foundation Peace and the Delegation of the Government of Catalonia in France have made it possible for a week the presence of "Missing."
Gustavo Germano lives in Barcelona and from there he started working on this project shares with us today.
This exhibition shows the before and after the Argentinian dictatorship between 1976 and 1983, but what's missing, what the photographer can not show with his camera is "the key" , which suggests that there is an obvious gap between these two photos of the before and after.
AUSENCIA seeks and finds in the complicity of his family reason. In his militant attitude, families of victims claimed by posing in front of the camera, instead he would have occupied. And in this vacuum, we see those who are not there.
"Absences" awakens an awareness of the brutality in the approximate or by making "visible" in the most esteemed: the daily, the dear, intimate. It is not necessary to be more exposed to military violence that has determined that this perpetual daily and marked by the absence of the loved one. As violent as a present 30 000 absences multiply exponentially and will reveal all those present today.
AUSENCIA is mainly an exhibition citizen or citizens who expose themselves. Wives, brothers, sisters-daughters, mothers, friends, citizens who one day went through the hell of violence, against them by the government of their country. Citizens who by their militant attitude and accomplice say I'm here for you to see who is gone, I exercise the practice of remembrance for that silence does not win the game, that's why I exposes me and let me shoot.
