Abstract
1989 After the Conversations of Algiers. Delirium and Truce is a case study exhibition within Pedro G. Romero's curatorial project 'Peace Treaty', organised as part of the Donosti 2016 European Capital of Culture. The exhibition is hosted by Artium in Vitoria-Gasteiz and by Fundació Antoni Tàpies in Barcelona.
The “permanent ceasefire in armed violence” decreed by ETA in 2011 is the most recent and nearest example of the will to put an end to a period of history scarred by violence. Prior attempts to start a negotiated peace process, such as the Conversations of Algiers (1987-1989), which give this exhibition its title, did not conclude with any type of agreement. Despite all the meetings held between the Spanish government and ETA, peace has been repeatedly put off. Exhibition curated by Carles Guerra
