Exhumations of the victims of Franco's repressive policies are cultural practices of
tremendous heuristic value and allow for the analysis of the public emergence, circulation and
consumption of traumatic memory in local contexts. The use of visual media to capture social
action in the surroundings of the exhumations serves as both a recording and as a triggering device
for this emerging social memory. In the first part of this article we shall reflect on the different forms
of visual and audiovisual interventions by different social actors that shape around mass grave
exhumations. In the second part we will focus on the visual methods used by social scientists,
particularly the recording of video-testimony of survivors and witnesses.
