About the Item
Color lithograph, Edition 30.
Enrique Chagoya makes paintings and prints about the changing nature of culture. My artwork is a conceptual fusion of opposite cultural realities that I have experienced in my lifetime. I integrate diverse elements: from pre-Columbian mythology, western religious iconography and American popular culture.
On the border of this print surrounding the image the following is written:
An American tourist is approached by a Mexican kid holding a small human skull in his hand. He asks him: “Hey Mister, do you want to buy Pancho Villa’s skull?” The tourist replies: “You tried to sell me Pancho Villa’s skull last year and it was much bigger”. The kid says: “Oh yes, but this one is from when he was a little baby”.
