NEXT EXHIBITION
ADRIANA GROISMAN: Voices of the South Atlantic
30 March to 25 May 2012

Launch Party
29 March, 18:30 - 21:00 | Free bar until 19:00

Photofusion is delighted to announce a major exhibition by Argentinian-born photographer Adriana Groisman, whose project marks the 30th anniversary of the Falklands/Malvinas War.

Voices of the South Atlantic examines issues of war and its consequences. Rooted in the 1982 Falklands/ Malvinas War, it includes the voices of people who fought on both sides, as well as civilians who were directly affected by it. Its premise is that fear and loss are universal, and that pain and trauma affect both the losers and the winners.

Colour photographs of landscapes of the Falkland Islands and black-and-white seascapes of the South Atlantic are shown next to portraits of British, Argentine and Falkland veterans and Falkland Islanders. By juxtaposing photographs of bloodied and scarred landscapes with testimonies from the people who lived the war, a dialogue is established between the time needed for the terrain to heal over and the period the men themselves need to recover.
