Book collection MIRAMAR

From November 27 to December 23, 2025

This exhibition presents Pedro Meyer’s photo essay on Miguel de la Madrid’s presidential campaign in the 1980s, exposing Mexican politics as a grand stage production in which citizens played their roles in a simulated democracy, with power firmly controlled by the PRI. With historical context from Rogelio Villarreal and analysis by Rubén Aguilar, the work explores the precision and symbolism of this “last great production” of politics, inviting us to question the nature of democracy and to value Meyer’s visual testimony as a unique document in Mexican history and photography.
