One of Mexico's leading contemporary artists, Lourdes Grobet is a photographer who, for the past 20 years, has set her camera lens to look at Mexican popular culture, from female wrestling to northern emigration, from neo-Mayan architecture to Cuban immigration. Beyond photography, she has also tackled architecture, installation art and graphic design, collaborating with numerous institutions in Mexico and abroad to realize her projects. Throughout her long career, she has sometimes been associated with the Fluxus movement, and has had a great influence on the younger generations of Mexican artists, including Gabriel Orozco and Ruben Ortiz. Some of the institutions with which she has worked include the Museo de Arte Moderno of Mexico City, Museo Carrillo Gil, Museo Nacional de Arte, Museo de Bellas Artes, Museo Esteudio Diego Rivera, Fondo de Cultura Economica editorial, and Secretaria de Educacion Publica, among others. Grobet's work has been exhibited both individually and in group shows in the United States, England, France, Holland, Sweden, Venezuela, Brazil and Mexico.

Desde muy pequeña, Lourdes Grobet se interesó por el espectáculo de la lucha libre mexicana. Es la única mujer que ha trabajado sobre el tema -durante más de 25 años-, y con sus lentes ha ido captando la magia de este apasionado deporte, del que se habla mucho y poco se conoce, pues se trata de un mundo aparte, especial, admirado pero incomprendido.Estos guerreros necesitan su disfraz, pues su aspecto no sólo es un bello adorno característico del contexto propio de la lucha libre, sino también un arma para desconcertar, deslumbrar, asustar y güamearse al contrincante. Guerreros alterados por el sublime placer de asumirse, estoicamente, "anónimos", cuya vida pública podrá ser una leyenda conocida, pero cuya vida privada debe ser un secreto, pues su epopéyica fantasía se confronta al diseño ambiental normal cotidiano con su particular misterio.En este fascinante libro, la asidua de las arenas se adentra en la vida privada de esos ídolos, en sus hogares, en sus sitios de reunión y en los festejos de los históricos gladiadores del ring. Rafael Tonatiuh aporta su especial visión de este fenómeno social único en el mundo. Cada luchador nos lleva al borde de su personal misterio.

Lourdes Grobet has documented the spectacle of Mexican professional wrestling, known as lucha libre (free fighting), for more than 25 years. The only woman to have worked in such proximity to the sport, Grobet has photographed the masked luchadores in many contexts--and always in their signature disguises, which practitioners have worn since 1942, when a wrestler named El Santo stepped into a Mexico City ring wearing a silver mask, literally changing the face of the game forever. The mask, always a symbolically rich object in Mexican culture, serves both as a retreat (into anonymity) and as an attack, as a weapon with which to disconcert and terrorize the opponent. Its visual appeal, especially when set in scenarios outside the ring, was quickly apparent to Grobet, who describes El Santo as "one of the teachers that most influenced me early on." In Lucha Libre: The Family Portraits, Grobet shows the wrestlers with their mothers, wives and girlfriends, sitting for w
