This is an anthropological essay that studies social dynamics of Mexicos city from the perspective of its inhabitants. An analysis about the relationship of their everyday life with the history of the city is made from questionnaires and the exhibitions of images to a group of people- taxi drivers, traffic cops, deliverymen of goods, students, housewives, street sellers and middle class motorists.

Las obras presentadas desarrollan una síntesis de mecanismos y técnicas propias de la renovación de los lenguajes del siglo XX, principalmente la apropiación fotográfica, el collage y el trazo informalista, en un afán de celebrar el arte y criticar la sociedad que nos rodea.
