Quite excellent! And someone had to post an homage to him. What an interesting artist. I have his biography, UTOPIA PARKWAY: THE LIFE AND WORK OF JOSEPH CORNELL, which I never finished reading. I will pick it up again.
Yes, a fascinating artist and a strange man. I have an inter-active CD-ROM about him and his work that someone sent me back in the late 90's so probably doesn't work too well on modern computers. I could try and copy it for you. Saw his retrospective at the Whitechapel gallery back in the 80's that was amazing. Well worth looking into.

ReplyDeleteI have a couple of Cornell books but never got round to reading them. Lovely pictures though!
DeleteHaha, I have the book "Dreams", but I also never read it! Looked at the pictures of his work several times. Love his art.
DeleteLOL we are all in the same boat on this one! I have other Cornell books and also have just perused the wonderful images.
DeleteNice one Michael. Not an artist I know a lot about, I'd like to find out more about J.Cornell.

DeleteThanks Michael.
DeleteYour collage is a great homage, Michael!
