The 25 photographs that make up the exhibit “Rostros de Zapopan” (Faces of Zapopan) show more than what meets the eye. The show was apparently intended to document a representative smattering of the city’s workers in their environments — bakers, store clerks, plumbers, even a photographer.
This the small show does well. But in addition, it suggests the surprisingly wide girth of Zapopan, which surrounds Guadalajara on its north, west and south sides and comprises an area at least double that of its better known, more urbanized and more sophisticated sister.
Even the show’s location, in the relatively new and sparkling Archivo Muncipal, which is situated between the Auditorio Telmex and the striking athletics arena built for the recent Pan American Games, suggests something of Zapopan’s new and growing character.
