Summary:For years, Lourdes Grobet (b. Mexico) has devoted her photographic work to the theme of "lucha libre". She has depicts the cohesive ambiance of one of great aspects of popular culture in Mexico (and now internationally recognized). Her photographs portray the festive life of men in masks, children with costumes, female wrestlers and their highly inspired choreography. She has created a series that joins the scattered elements of what goes on in the ring, with women rewriting historic femininity or tenderly nurturing their children. This is the largest gathering of her work on the subject. Curated by Alfonso Morales Carrillo and Includes texts by Carlos Monsiváis.
