The poems and paintings of City of Red Horizons are related to the seven years of dictatorship in Argentina from 1976 until 1983 when 30,000 people, most of them youth who believed in justice, were captured, tortured, and killed by the government.
Dismembering or annihilating families was one of the military's goals. My narrative poem and art works tell how the methodology of state terrorism broke down my family, as well as all the thousands of families who endured similar fate.
Through these pages I want to raise my voice in order to alert people about what happened in my country, as well as in other Latin American countries, for such atrocities never to happen again.
Comments are welcome. On Peace and Solidarity, Raquel Partnoy
