Chatos y narizones
Pepe Gómez y Ricardo Rendón fueron dos caricaturistas de la llamada época de oro de la caricatura en Colombia que establecieron un diálogo entre lo que fue la prensa y la opinión pública durante el periodo 1928-1930, en el cual una ola de violencia, represión y crisis económica envolvió la campaña presidencial de 1930, desde lo que fue la conocida Masacre de las Bananeras, en diciembre de 1928, hasta las elecciones presidenciales, el 9 de febrero de 1930 y la victoria de candidato de la Concentración Nacional, el liberal Enrique Olaya Herrera, luego de cincuenta años de Hegemonía Conservadora.
