The controversy that has raised the work of painter Fabián Chairez, exposing under his vision a Mexican icon such as Emiliano Zapata, one of the greatest expressions of Mexican male patriotism.

In the same way that the stereotypes of the Mexican male, place him on the other side, on the less valued side, on the feminine; many have been offended without remembering and without knowing many times that there is no revolution without sexual revolution. Even more, the offense is twofold, when exposed and supported by the most representative institution of my country, that one that shoots with or without reason and that is not art and this time in my opinion had a great success, to propitiate and defend this Emiliano Zapata effeminate for the good of Mexican artistic expression.

As a historical icon is subject to representations of all kinds, not as a person, the person is clearly blurred because their deeds and actions have gone beyond the flesh and bones, has become a myth, that is why it is so attractive, that is why it raises so many passions, that is why until today has a revolutionary utility that not even the same being ever imagined, its mission is to follow social changes by opting for its less appreciated form to that brave male, womanizer, rude, serious, etc.. that opposite side, a fragile, delicate being, with desire, cute, beautiful, etc.
