Ad Perpetuam Memoriam is a project based on the activation of the collective memory of various episodes of the Civil War and the Franco regime through contemporary language. This exhibition aims to help continue showing that the repression imposed by the Franco regime throughout Spain, especially in the lives of women and political dissidents, was not an isolated act, but was used in a systematic way, violating human rights, castrating and marking several generations. The objective of the exhibition is to carry out a process of symbolization and put this historical visual archive into circulation to recover the collective memory of those affected by the civil and post-war war, for whom the suffering caused before their memories disappear remains unrecognized. .

The information in Perpetua Memoria -Ad Perpetuam Memoriam- belongs to the Royal Decree of February 3, 1881, promulgating the Civil Procedure Law. It is an "act of voluntary jurisdiction whose purpose is to carry out an inquiry or test intended to justify some fact or prove a right so that it is hereinafter unequivocally recorded." The protocolization of the Ad Perpetuam Memoriam information allowed for several years the exhumation and dignification of some victims murdered during the Civil War and buried without authorization in the Valley of the Fallen. In 2015, this law was repealed by the Minister of Justice, leaving several exhumation processes in suspension and making it impossible to start the others.
