Enrique Chagoya, American, born Mexico, 1953. “De que mal morira,” from the series “Return to Goya’s Caprichos,” 1999. Etching with aquatint on paper, 26/40. Purchase: gift of the Print Society.



KANSAS CITY, MO.- The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art presents Enrique Chagoya: ‘Return to Goya’s Caprichos’. A suite of eight contemporary prints by Enrique Chagoya (American, b. 1953, Mexico City) recasts “Los Caprichos,” well-known satirical etchings by Francisco Goya y Lucientes (Spanish, 1746-1828), in the modern world. Caricatures of public figures such as Linda Tripp, Jesse Helms and Jerry Falwell populate this savagely witty series from 1999, on view for the first time since being presented by the Museum’s Print Society in 2005.
