Abstract:"Wanted" emerged from the cataloging process of the portraits through which Manuel Álvarez Bravo immortalized hundreds of people, both Mexican and foreign. The title is a metaphor to refer to the people who appear in these photographs, whose negatives did not include the personal data of those photographed. The characters were part of some time in the history of Mexico, but they were lost, forgotten, and "prisoners" in the archive where they were digitized and cataloged. The photobook contains an introductory text of the Manuel Álvarez Bravo Archive and 161 portraits, of which more than forty have been identified. A special edition of one hundred copies included an original print in silver / gelatin and issued in specialy designed box. All the photos are accompanied by the cataloguing number of the negative used in the Archivo. The negatives have the following supports: glass plate, cellulose nitrate film and safety film. To facilitate the work in the Archivo, we used nicknames for some of the persons who were not identified; we have decided to include this in inverted commas.ʺ--Page 22
