Experience the first U.S. solo museum exhibition by multidisciplinary artist José Villalobos. “Rough Rider” delves into the spectacle of rodeo culture, taking the sport as a point of departure to address themes related to machismo, protection and performing gender, while situating these issues within the vibrant contexts of metropolitan Phoenix. Runs through July 20th, 2025. - Chicano/a/x Prints and Graphics: Selections from the Hispanic Research Center’s Collection, 1980–2010
