Scope and Contents

The artist Chagoya presents "a fictional pre-columbian codex book." His images stem from ancient meso-America, comic book characters, Catholic iconography, ethnic stereotypes and the border patrol. Gomez-Pena describes a futurist United States in which the Chicano culture and Spanglish are mainstream. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
