Press release

A compelling look at political violence in Peru between 1980 and 2000, this selection of forty photographs from the exhibition organized by the Peruvian Truth and Reconciliation Commission in 2003 sheds light on the human dimensions of a war-torn society. During this period, an estimated 70,000 people were killed or disappeared, and many more were raped, injured, or forced to abandon their homes. For more information and to view the exhibit photos, visit www.yale.edu/macmillan/lais.
