    The Aztec and Maya Revival exhibition at the Mexic-Arte Museum illustrates the reemergence of Pre-Columbian iconography in Mexican fine and decorative arts from the early part of the 20th century. The exhibition also features a collection of authentic Pre-Columbian works and artifacts, demonstrating the continuation of similar visual patterns and themes. The Aztec Mummy Collection (1957-1958), a trio of vintage Mexican horror films, is showing in the Back Gallery. The Aztec and Maya Revival exhibition was developed in collaboration with graduate art history research assistant Claudia Zapata through the College of Fine Arts from the University of Texas at Austin. The items in the exhibition are on loan from the University of Texas and private collections.
