About [Edit]
Víctor Lidio Jara Martínez (September 28, 1932 – September 15, 1973) was a Chilean educator, theatre director, poet, folk singer-songwriter, and political activist. He was prominent in the development of the “Nueva canción Chilena”(New Chilean Song) movement, that acquired considerable prominence during the socialist government of Salvador Allende. His murder shortly after the September 11, 1973 coup in Chile, transformed Jara and his music into a symbol of struggle against military repression across Latin America.
The Foundation was established to celebrate Victor Jara and his work by collecting, organizing, and conserving the images and sounds that illustrate his life and art.
