Major edition comprising 512 portraits elaborated in paintings, engravings, sculptures, photographs and videos that reflect on the identity of the Mexican in the last 25 centuries. With texts from specialists in each area, the volume takes a tour beginning in the Pre-Hispanic era with the portentous presence of the Olmec heads and the figures of Tlatilco; the colonial painting of castes, portraits of the Viceroyalty with its angels and demons, as well as the daguerreotypes of anonymous men and women of the 19th century that give way to the modernity of the 20th century with the self-portraits of Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and Juan O 'Gorman, the following years of the "rupture" of Alberto Gironella, José Luis Cuevas, Gilberto Aceves Navarro and Francisco Toledo, the next generations, prone to metaphors, the use of ephemeral supports and direct political criticism, such as Mónica Castillo , Nahúm B. Zenil, Julio Galán, Gabriel de la Mora and Gustavo Monroy, and closing with the artistic manifestations full of symbolic, ironic and even subversive features of Minerva Cuevas, Miguel Calderón, Carlos Amorales and Teresa Margolles.
