Description

This exhibition features an early first edition of "Los Caprichos," a set of eighty etchings by Spanish artist Francisco de Goya y Lucientes published in 1799.  Included in the exhibition for comparison are other works by Goya.



To augment Goya's "Los Caprichos" prints, the exhibition will also include the work of several contemporary artists including Enrique Chagoya, Jason Garcia (Santa Clara), Roger Shimomura, and Jaune Quick-to-See Smith (Flathead, Shoshone).  Like Goya, these exceptional artists all incorporate social commentary and social critique as integral aspects of their work.
