Description

As America faced its darkest days during the Civil War, Mexico, too, waged war that led to the creation of its modern state. In conjunction with Abraham Lincoln Transformed, the Museum, in an exhibited co-curated by the National Museum of Mexican Art, presents Benito Juárez and the Making of Modern Mexico. Both Lincoln and Juárez faced urgent situations that would forever shape the future of their countries. Over 25 national treasures from Mexico that have never been exhibited in the United States will be on display. The artifacts are on loan from the Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia and the Secretaria de Hacienda y Credito Publico de Mexico.
