“At the Freedom Tower, Goya’s caustic vision has lost none of its power to unnerve.

In fact, for some, Goya’s brush with state-sponsored terror, rabid religious fundamentalism, brutal conquests, and antagonism between social classes will seem woefully relevant for our age.

Therein may lie the brilliance of the Spanish master’s skull-staving series of etchings created during the later stages of his career and on view in “Goya: The Engravings of the Caixanova Collection” for the first time in the United States. Miami Dade College and Caixanova, a Spanish bank with offices worldwide, are presenting the must-see exhibit.”
