A window washer dressed as Spiderman scales a building. A nanny clad as Cat Woman attends to children. A pizza delivery man wearing Superman garb rides a bike with pies in the basket.

The concept is linked to the immigrant experience in the United States and echoes throughout a new exhibit at the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago.”*
