Ruins
<p>Halkin received his BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1949 and returned to the school as a distinguished professor of painting and drawing, where he stayed for almost 40 years, frequently bringing his classes to the museum’s galleries. The artist’s early work was inspired by cave paintings, Romanesque art, and mythology; in the 1950s his work was linked to the Monster Roster group.</p>
