An antimonumento was installed opposite the Mexican Social Security Institute Headquarters, on Paseo de la Reforma Avenue, in the Cuauhtémoc borough of Mexico City. The work included the installation of the number 49 and the ABC initials, in reference to the forty-nine children that died during the June 5, 2009 daycare center fire in Hermosillo, Sonora.
The anti-monument was installed by protesters at noon on June 5, 2017 – the eighth anniversary of the disaster – as a plea for justice for the victims. The artwork was never given an official name and those who installed it referred to it simply as Antimonumento; it is known as Antimonumento 49 ABC because of its physical characteristics, although it is also known by other names.
