Summary:

In recent years, the little-known research group Forensic Architecture (Rosario Guiraldes (coordinator), Christina Varvia, Samaneh Moafi, Ariel Caine, Hana Rizvanolli) made up of architects, artists, filmmakers, investigative journalists, scientists, and lawyers, uses architecture as a methodological device with which to investigate armed conflicts and environmental destruction, and to cross-reference multiple other evidence sources such as new media, remote sensing, material investigation and witness testimony to investigate human rights abuses. This publication features six of their most recent investigations. "The exhibition, which is an evolution of FORENSIS (Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin, 2014) Fundación PROA, Buenos Aires, 2015), is presented for the first time at the MACBA Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, and after at the MUAC Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, in México City" (HKB Translation)--Page 8.
