Putting a face on these people is the purpose of photojournalist Franz Krajnik, the author of the book Uchuraccayœ.In five years of work, Krajnik managed to approach the Ucharaccaynos and reconstruct the image of the settlers towards the journalists. Uchuraccay shares, with other peoples, the pain of thousands of Peruvians who lost their families in the internal war. Krajnik's photographs complete a hidden part of his tragic history and portray Peruvians who for many years were invisible.Uchuraccay is a community from the heights of Ayacucho that became sadly celebrated at the end of January 1983, when eight journalists and a guide perished at the hands of the local community members. Shortly after this event, 135 residents of Uchuraccay were killed by incursions of the Shining Path and subsequent military repression. Franz Krajnik's book aims to reflect in a thoughtful and emotionally concerned way the connection between the past and the present experienced by the community of Uchuraccay. His black and white photographs show the memory of the violence that accompanies the inhabitants of Uchuraccay, but also reflects the experiences and hopes of community members, embodied in various situations of daily life. Krajnik conceives his work explicitly as a memory essay. And it certainly is.ʺ (HKB Translation) --Verso Cover.
