Summary
Full page color photographs of Mexican "luchadores" (professional wrestlers) characterized by their colorful masks and their technical and acrobatic skills, taken since 2000 by photojournalist Rosalío Vera. The book comprises two main parts: A first part, the medullar and most important of the photographic collection represents the graphic documentation of the live professional wrestling matches in diverse rings in Mexico City (Arena Pista Revolucion, Arena Mexico, etc.). The second part includes studio photographs of posing "luchadores" for advertising and promotional purposes. The book was published using part of the photographs of an exhibition held in 2008 at the Galeria Jose Maria Velasco, in Mexico City.
