Four Years of MoMA
Halloween Pumpkins
Posted by Jason Persse, Editorial Manager, Marketing and Communications
For the fourth year running, MoMA visitors who pass through the
Museum’s film entrance during the days leading up to Halloween are
treated to an iconic modern-art masterpiece - in seasonally appropriate
pumpkin form.
In celebration of the Henri Matisse: The Cut-Outs exhibition, the knife-wielding crazies at Maniac Pumpkin Carvers have “cut out” a beautiful interpretation of Matisse’s Blue Nude.
