Is this Tomorrow (Fotofria)
Is this tomorrow (2018). Collaborative project with Zahara Gómez and Mauricio Palos. Taking its name from the 1947 anticommunist American comic book, this book brings together different strands of effects of the Cold War in Latin America. The main approach is the idea of the archive as a site of intervention. We conceive as archive old documents, books, photographs and monuments. Our main thread is a counterinsurgency manual from the School of the Americas which we then intervene with juxtapositions of archival/historical photographs, manipulated images, fragments of interviews from relatives and people involved in disappearances in Argentina and Mexico, former FARC guerrillas and sites of battles in Colombia, Guatemalan archives, and forensic landscapes.
