Hyperallergic: A Mysterious Police Archive Reveals
Mid-Century Mexico’s Cult Criminal Heroes by Carey Dunne on January 7, 2016
In summer 2010, while poking around at a stall in Mexico
City’s sprawling thrift market, Las Lagunillas, artist Stefan Ruiz discovered a
batch of photographs from the city’s police archives. Over the next few years,
Ruiz purchased hundreds more such photos from the vendor, who refused to reveal
his source. The yellowing black-and-white images included mugshots, stills of
an armed robbery, and artists’ impressions of both notorious criminals and
stolen jewelry. Ruiz was fascinated by this rarely seen visual history of crime
in mid-century Mexico. Now, his collection is compiled in a book, Mexican Crime Photographs, published by GOST.
