OPENING OF THE PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION ‘RECONÓCEME’ AT ASTRA GERNIKA

Gernika Gogoratuz and the Foundation `Escuelas de Paz´ from Colombia present the photography exhibition ‘Reconóceme’ (Recognise me), an activity created by NODO Euskadi, the network living in exile in support of the Truth Commission in Colombia. The exhibition is part of the project ‘Memories for Life’ and can be visited from 4 to 26 November at Astra Gernika.

The aim is to make visible the experiences of Colombian exiles in the Basque Country with 22 photographs that tell their own story in a tribute to those who told their testimony to weave the truth that is outside Colombia.

The opening took place on the 4th of November at 18:00 at Astra and was attended by Maria Oianguren and Liliana Zambrano from Gernika Gogoratuz, Carlos Martín Beristain, ex-commissioner of the Commission for the Clarification of Truth, Coexistence and Non-repetition (CEV), Miguel Angel Puentes, photographer, and Lorna Biermann López, curator of the exhibition.
