Descripción de la Exposición

The 17 paintings included in The War We Have Not Seen, A Historical Memory Project of Juan Manuel Echavarría, were created by men and women who participated in Colombia s war. All 35 participants were rank and file soldiers demobilized either under the Ley de Justicia y Paz (Justice and Peace Law), or because they deserted or were wounded in combat. They spent two years painting their personal experiences, illustrating the rural tragedy; witnessing the involvement of drug traffickers, capturing the painful repertoire of violence in Colombia, which for years has played out alongside daily life, blending in with normality.
