It will be marked by a video projection and display names of the victims of genocide, while at the front wall of the museum, will start projection of the work SREBRENICA-GUERNICA, which will be implemented by a group of young artists gathered in the group Collective Kreaktiva (YAGE). Both events will run until midnight.

ALFONS RODRÍGUEZ
His documentary photographic work has been exhibited in different countries of Europe, America and Africa. He has published several reports during his more than 20 years of professional career developed in more than 100 countries.

He has also written several books, such as: Between Gazes y El Tercer Jinete, un mundo hambriento (The Third Rider). He has worked together with organisations and international agencies, such as the United Nations, Oxfam, Doctors without Borders, Solidarity Foundation of the University of Barcelona, or Action against Hunger.
He has been awarded numerous national and international prizes, such as the Premio Godó de Fotoperiodismo (Godó Award for Photojournalism), precisely for a picture from his work in Srebrenica. This exhibition seeks to remember the pain still suffered by that small city from Bosnia and Herzegovina and, therefore, his photographs have been exhibited for more than five years in different cities, such as Sarajevo, New York, Rome, or Barcelona, among others.
