Dime-Store Alchemy: The Art of Joseph Cornell
A poetic reflection on the life and work of American surrealist artist Joseph Cornell, written by poet Charles Simic. Simic's prose is as enchanting as the mysterious boxes of found objects for which Cornell is renowned.
This book offers a unique insight into the creative process of one of America's great artists, presented in spare yet luminous prose that mirrors the enigmatic world of Cornell's art.
