Memorial Rescatemos a David y Miguel

Rescatemos a David y Miguel is an antimonumento (anti-monument) installed on Paseo de la Reforma Avenue in the Cuauhtémoc borough of Mexico City. The work included the installation of the figure of a bi-color male on a plinth. It is dedicated to David Ramírez and Miguel Ángel Rivera, two men who were kidnapped on 5 January 2012 when they were traveling to Ixtapa Zihuatanejo, Guerrero. Despite the ransom being paid, neither was returned, and their whereabouts remain unknown. The artwork was installed at the Esquina de la Información intersection, opposite the Antimonumento +43 on 5 January 2018. The sides of the base include brackets designed for attaching padlocks, used as a form of protest.
