America, Lens of Solidarity deals with the social conflicts that took place in Latin America in the 1970s and beginnings of the 1980s. With more than 100 photographs, this exhibition presents the testimony of the Latin American dictatorships and the repression they entailed, as well as rebellion as an act of dignity. From the perspective of solidarity of the photographers, the images—forms of activism, denouncement, documentary and art—are accompanied by books and printed material created in the 1st and 2nd Latin American Colloquiums of Photography in 1978 and 1981. The exhibition is organized around four central themes: Realities, Repression, Rebellion and Culture. Solidarity is the nucleus that merged not only the photographic trade, but also the different Latin American communities, against social repression, always behind a Latin American lens of solidarity.
