February 4 - May 16, 2010
The exhibition will explore the significance and impact of political caricature by comparing images from the past-canonical works by Daumier and his contemporaries featuring French king Louis-Philippe (1830-1848)-with work produced much more recently, during the tenure of U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush (1993-2008).
