内容説明

Joseph Cornell was one of the most original artists of the 20th century. Born in 1902, he lived almost all his life with his mother and his badly handicapped brother in a house on Utopia Parkway, Queens, New York. A recluse, with no formal artistic training, Cornell had an obsessive fear of female sexuality (he died a virgin) but fantasized about ballerinas and film stars, preferably long dead. These fantasies were expressed in his remarkable "shadow boxes", the constructions on which his artistic reputation rests. Admired by the Surrealists, then the Abstract Expressionists and finally the Pop artists, Cornell remained a unique figure, both as an artist and a human being.
