Antimonumenta

Italy

An antimonumenta was installed in front of the Palace of Fine Arts, in Mexico City on 8 March 2019, the date commemorating International Women's Day, during the annual march of women protesting against gender violence. The sculpture was symbolically named Antimonumenta and has since inspired similar

anti-monuments throughout the country, including the one in Guadalajara, Jalisco and the one in Morelia, Michoacán. The erection of an antimonumenta symbolizes the demand for justice for women who suffer from violence in the country.
