Description: Halloween Party by Philip Guston Trick Or Treat Art Postcard In Halloween Party by Philip Guston, children costumed to incite fear as wild animals and goblins are comically afraid of their own shadows. They are huddled together, showing insecurity in the face of a presumed threat just outside of the limits of the canvas. The young girl clutches her brother's hand, the boy dressed as a tiger shouts into,the distance, at the back, the boy dressed in red, suggestive of a court jester or fool, finds solace in picking his nose. Produced shortly after moving to rural Iowa from the bustling city, Halloween Party might also suggest the artist's own insecurities on by the move. Philip Guston (1913 – 1980) is one of the great luminaries of twentieth-century art. His commitment to producing work from genuine emotion and lived experience ensures its enduring impact. Guston’s legendary career spanned a half century, from 1930 to 1980. His paintings—particularly the liberated and instinctual forms of his late work—continue to exert a powerful influence on younger generations of contemporary painters. The Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia) is an arts museum located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Home to more than 90,000 works of art representing 5,000 years of world history, Mia is one of the largest art museums in the United States. Its permanent collection spans about 20,000 years and represents the world's diverse cultures across six continents. The museum has seven curatorial areas: Arts of Africa & the Americas; Contemporary Art; Decorative Arts, Textiles & Sculpture; Asian Art; Paintings; Photography and New Media; and Prints and Drawings. In 2015, the institute rebranded itself, dropping the final "s" from its name, to become the Minneapolis Institute of Art and encouraging the use of the nickname Mia instead of the acronym MIA.
