As part of the exhibition 'Volaverunt. Goya's engravings revisited by the contemporary eye', artist Marcos Prior draws the lost engraving Se aprovechan. A live action, accompanied by a guided tour by Aina Mercader, curator of the exhibition.

Saprovechan is a fanzine-inspired publication that deconstructs the scene of the missing engraving. Marcos Prior (L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, 1975) isolates and singles out some of its parts through close-ups, and focuses on the looks and gestures of each of the six characters, victims and executioners, who make up the macabre lost print.

This is an edition, numbered and signed by the author, printed in the workshops of Máquina Total (Barcelona), in risography, a technique, devised in the fifties, to duplicate originals, halfway between mechanical and digital printing.

In the engraved series, Goya experiments with the various possibilities of graphic production, with a combination of procedures that incorporate etching, aquatint, drypoint or burin, among others: engraving as if he were painting and anticipating the possibilities of contemporary engraving. With Saprovechan, Prior recovers a form of reproduction in which each copy is a unique and original piece, as is the case with prints, since the color spots of the two combined inks vary in each of the impressions.
