Description
Summary:The photos that were taken by Gervasio Sánchez at Balcanic conflict from 1991 until 1999 (Kosovo's war, which was the last confrontation) are, nowadays, a great information source in order to understand how was life in that difficult moment and the response given by the victims, especially in the siege days. Throughout this article we will see how photography serves as documentation to remember that behind every historical error are thousands of people who have to live with the worst horrors: war. Also, the return of Gervasio Sánchez to the place where he took the most impressive photos means close the loop of one of the most important graphic works of our time. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
