A new exhibit that seeks to show the elementality of the eclectic body of work of highly acclaimed Mexican filmmaker Guillermo del Toro opened on March 5 at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
“Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters” features many of the components of the filmmaker’s works, along with items from his personal collections and some of his own drawings. Del Toro also handpicked relevant art pieces from the museum’s collection for inclusion in the show. More than 500 objects are on view in the exhibit, including paintings, sculpture, prints, photography, photographs, artefacts, fim, books, and maquettes.

“This exhibition is the latest in a series at Mia exploring process and inspiration as the cornerstones of human creativity,” said Gabriel Ritter, curator of the exhibition. “Del Toro’s insatiable curiosity drives his creative process. His work is informed by his remarkable knowledge of art, literature, and his sensitivity to the inherently flawed nature of humankind. At the same time, he finds inspiration, nourishment, and wonder in objects of all kinds, seeing no divide between ‘high’ and ‘low’ culture.”
“Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters” will run until May 28.
