Alarma!

Various parts of Mexico are trapped in a cycle of terrible violence, with horrific femicides, powerful criminal organizations and impunity for the vast majority of those responsible for increasing atrocities. Although the contexts are different, other Latin American countries have gone through similar periods, from Central American civil wars to drug violence (and social conflicts) in countries such as Peru and Colombia. Of course, not all violence is as spectacular and is exercised in different ways. What are the strategies that image artists have used to represent this? What are the ethical challenges and how can we confront them?
