Testimoni de guerra

Pau Carrió

War conflicts and journalism. Where are the limits?


Pau Carrió approaches two of the most emblematic names of war journalism: the South African photographer Kevin Carter, who killed himself four months after having received the Pulitzer Prize for his photograph of a Sudanese girl with a vulture behind her, and the war correspondent Marie Colvin, assassinated by the Syrian regime in 2012 after having covered many armed conflicts in the Middle East, the Balkans, Chechnya, East Timor, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe or Sri Lanka.


A diptych of two dramatic poems on news from war zones and its consequences, with the focus on the questions and paradoxes inevitably awakened by the portrayal of distant violence in the media.
