The Cold War is over - yet signs of it still exist. For forty years, the Iron Curtain divided the countries of Europe into East & West. The Arms race was unleased, nuclear fallout shelters were constructed, and everyone braced for the worst. Dutch documentary photographer Martin Roemers (b.1962) spent ten years in search of the traces of this period, traveling through the countries of former enemies on both sides of the line. He explored and documented underground tunnels, abandoned system control centers, former barracks, rotting tanks, and destroyed monuments. His photographs, which are presented here with essays by H.J.A.Hofland and Nadine Barth, are a stark and moving document of this era of hostility, deterrence politics, and the arms race - and also serve as an appeal for future peace.
