El Salvador: work of 30 photographers 1980s

This year my life randomly took me to a small yet inspiring country of Central America: El Salvador. During the few months that I was there, one of the things that most captivated me except the myriad shades of green, was the warmth of the people. A people that suffered extensively not so very long ago. These are some photographs from a book that was published in the 80s followed by an exhibition, and which was later reexhibited in 2005. The work of 30 photojournalists that captured images during the civil war.
