Description

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 solo es un bello adorno característico del contexto propio de 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 luchado rnos lleva al borde de su personal misterio.

From a very young age, Lourdes Grobet was interested in the Mexican wrestling show. She is the only woman who has worked on the subject - for more than 25 years - and with her lenses she has been capturing the magic of this passionate sport, which is talked about a lot and little is known, since it is a world apart, specially admired but misunderstood. These warriors need their costume, because their appearance is not only a beautiful adornment characteristic of the wrestling context itself, but also a weapon to confuse, dazzle, scare and fool the opponent. Warriors altered by the sublime pleasure of assuming, anonymity in a stoic way. Their public life may be legendary, but their private life must be a secret, since their epic fantasy confronts the normal everyday environmental design with its particular mystery. In this fascinating book, the assiduous of the arenas delves into the private lives of these idols, in their homes, in their meeting places and in the celebrations of the historic gladiators of the ring. Rafael Tonatiuh brings his special vision of this unique social phenomenon in the world. Each fought takes us to the edge of its personal mystery.
