EPAF Press Release: October 24, 2008
Exhibit: If I Don't Come Back...Look for Me in Putis
by Domingo Giribaldi
Lima, PERU - The Centro de la Imagen and EPAF (Peruvian Forensic Anthropology Team) present on Tuesday, November 4th at 7:30 p.m., the photographic exhibit "If I don't come back... look for me in Putis", by Domingo Giribaldi.
These photos are the visual testimony of Domingo Giribaldi and the members of EPAF's trip to Ayacucho for the public display of the clothing found in the mass grave of Putis, Ayacucho. Over the lapse of a week, more than three hundred people, between family, friends and neighbors of the area, arrived at the exhibition of clothing, organized by EPAF, to support with their testimony and presence the search for their missing ones.
Giribaldi's photographs reveal the desolation, the void and the isolation of a community that, as many others in Peru, has not lost the hope of finding their dead. The main goal of the exhibit is to raise awareness in the public opinion with regards to the subject of missing people and their families.
The exhibit will travel to the United States, where it will be displayed from the 13th to the 15th of November at the University of Georgetown, in association with The Advocacy Project in Washington, D.C., and from the 19th to the 21st of November at the University of Colorado in Boulder, in association with Denver Justice and Peace Committee.
The photographic exhibition can be visited at the Centro de Imagen until the 19th of November, Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. After the 19th of November the exhibit will be taken to different towns around the country.
