Enrique Chagoya

Born in 1953, Mexico D.F
Lives in San Francisco

Enrique Chagoya’s latest print is “A Dream Lost”. The artist describes this work as follows:

“This is a map of an imperfect but perfectible imaginary country. It is an invitation to create a place where everyone can enjoy a shared life of freedom. It is a wish for anyone with big dreams that keep moving away every time they get close to them. It is also kind of a poem describing a place that may be temporarily out of reach under our current chaotic circumstances. I hope someday, when the pendulum of history swings the other way, we will finally land on our lost dream.”

In 2000, Chagoya became a citizen of the United States. He is currently Associate Professor of Art at Stanford University where he received the Dean’s Award in the Humanities in 1998. In 2013, ARTIUM, Basque Centre-Museum of Contemporary Art presented the exhibition Cannibal Palimpsest, Chagoya’s first exhibition in a European museum.

Chagoya’s work is in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The LA County Museum, The National Museum of American Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Museum of Modern Art, Yale University Art Gallery and The New York Public Library among others.
