Overview

Until the publication of this authors Utopia Parkway, Joseph Cornell (1903-1972) was thought of as a recluse who made his art almost accidentally during his humdrum life, which he spent looking after his mother & sickly brother. But this "remarkably energetic, lavishly detailed & boldly interpretive biography" the author established Cornell as an artist as serious as the Surrealists, Abstract Expressionists, & conceptual artist who dominated the New York art world in his lifetime. Not only does she show that Cornell's shadow boxes were vastly influential in that world, she also shows that Cornell was a regular figure there, admired by Dali, Rothko, & Rauschenberg. Most of all, she reveals his astonishing inner live, swirling with fantasies about long-dead ballerinas, visions of Paris, & other worldly desires.
