'Bold Caballeros y Noble Bandidas' presented by the ASU Hispanic Research Center will be on display through May 10 at the Autry National Center of the America West.

The exhibition explores relations between the U.S. and its neighbor to the south after the Mexican Revolution of 1910 and the evolution of Mexican pop culture that resulted. 

The exhibition focuses on testosterone-fueled caballeros, but also features the shift in female cultural norms of the time, making the case that the revolution served as a catalyst in the emancipation of subservient Mexican women, says Gary D. Keller, director of the Hispanic Research Center and co-curator of the exhibit.

With the lasting effect of the myths surrounding these symbols of the revolution, it's no surprise that the exhibition blends the theme with the Day of the Dead to signify the deceased and living commingling.

"It would be hard to do a show like this, and give it justice, without blending it with the Day of the Dead," says Keller. "The folklore surrounding the outlaws lives on."
