Summary
"Dead Archive or how the historical memory around violence of a country is thrown away as garbage. El Espacio circulated in Bogota for almost five decades. It was one of the few and last "Red Press" of the city. Every morning, it showed gore pictures of crimes, red headlines and topless women in the last page. Its photographic archive, thrown away and collected by street recyclers, was sold by weight as reusable paper. It was almost definitely lost but due to the fact that some pictures fell into the hands of few collectors, a small part of it was saved. A group of original images, with their identification data on the back, was selected by Andrés Orjuela. He has chosen to re-interpret and gradually reveal remains of this archive."--Publisher's website.
