Rescatemos a David y Miguel is an antimonumento installed at the Esquina de la Información intersection, opposite the Superior Court of Justice of Mexico City Building, on Paseo de la Reforma Avenue, in the Cuauhtémoc borough of Mexico City. The work included the installation of the figure of a bi-color male, in reference to David Ramírez and Miguel Ángel Rivera, two males that were kidnapped on 5 January 2012 when they were traveling to Ixtapa, Guerrero. Although the ransom payment was made, both were not returned and their whereabouts or conditions are unknown.
