The Auditorio Barradas he accommodates the exhibition "Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only atomic attacks of the history," of Lucas Vallecillos, photo-journalist. The exhibition is a photographic essay about the atomic bombardments in headquarters 75 anniversary. He retrieves the historical memory for fostering the culture of the peace and he invites to the reflection on the destructive power of the nuclear armament, and the need to abolish it.

This exhibition is divided into two parts. The first, entitled "Testimonies", puts a face to the disaster caused by the atomic bombing, through the testimony of 8 hibakusha (survivors of the atomic bomb) who explain how they experienced the bombing and how it has marked the future of their lives. The photo of each testimony is accompanied by a large text resulting from the interview with the survivor. The second part, called "Hiiroshima and Nagasaki today", is a current portrait of the two cities, which live in the present without forgetting the past and are an example of improvement. This series of images aims to stimulate a more modern collective imagination, which transcends the dramatic black and white images of 1945.
