This exhibition is the firts retrospective of the work of Mónica Mayer (Méxi- co City, 1954), whose creative production as an artistic, critic, teacher and activist has positioned her on a national and international level as the clear- est and most consistent referent in Mexican feminist art since the 1970s.
This book presents Mayer’s oeuvre as a holistic, multidisciplinary phenome- non that is located in a constant movement between individual and collective work, and in a reflexive dialogue whit her personal and social context, confi- guring an alternative model to the hegemonic art system and at the same time constituting a key presence in the field of contemporary Mexican art.
