The exhibition features roughly 70 artworks by nearly 40 artists from Mexico and the United States.

The Malinche of the exhibit's title was an enslaved indigenous girl who served as interpreter and translator for Hernán Cortés. She later became his mistress. Also known by the names Malinalli, Malintzin, and Doña Marina, she is the mother of Cortés' first-born son, which placed her in the unique position as a symbol of a modern Mexico built upon both Spanish and indigenous heritage.

The artworks in the section"Mother of a Mixed Race" examine how Malinche and Cortés were mythologized as the founding couple of a modern Mexico and their son as the first mestizo, a person of mixed European and Indigenous background.
