‘There is nothing to do now but paint my life — Dreams, surroundings,
predicament — desperation, Musa — love — need —
Keep destroying any attempt to paint pictures, or think about art —’
—Philip Guston
Featuring works selected by Musa Mayer, the artist’s daughter and President of The Guston Foundation, ‘Philip Guston. What Endures,’ includes thirteen important paintings made between 1971 and 1976, a time of social and political turmoil in the United States with parallels to the current state of crisis in America and the world at large.
