History
It appears that this was a specific conflict in Colombia. While there are references online to "bipartisan war" in Colombia, none of them is as specific as this mention in the Spanish:
El texto coloca sobre la mesa de discusión aquellos asuntos que hicieron posible la concreción de una obra plástica que reflexiona acerca de la representación y de la imagen a partir de la observación de la realidad. No sólo desde la experiencia cotidiana de la misma, sino también desde la penetración en situaciones desafortunadas provenientes de la violencia a la que se vio sujeta una ciudad como Cali durante la guerra bipartidista y, más tarde, con el auge de los cárteles del narcotráfico (década de ochenta).
Thanks!

bipartisan conflict
I think "bipartisan" works fine here; the conflict was between the liberals and conservatives of the country.
