Description: Monuments of steel and concrete as seen along the "Ruta Esculto rica" in the metropolitan area around Monterrey, Mexico. In 2007, the city of Monterrey experienced one of the most ambitious and important public art projects in its history: to form a sculptural route along the Santa Catarina River, and for this the city invited prestigious international artists such as Albert Paley (United States), O scar Niemeyer (Brazil), Bruce Beasley (United States), Mathias Goeritz (Mexico), Josep Mari a Sirvent (Spain), Julio Le Parc (Argentina), Jorge Elizondo (Mexico), Ahmed Nawar (Egypt), to donate a sculpture. The monumental sculptures placed in the "The Sculpture Route of Steel and Cement" (REAC) can be seen from afar and at speed, that is, from a car that runs along the avenue, and at a distance that offers the possibility of being looked at as part of the urban landscape. However, despite the artistic value of the eight sculptures, they suffer from abandonment and lack of maintenance after Hurricane Alex in July 2010.
