Joseph Cornell: Wanderlust

I'm very happy with the book I ordered - Joseph Cornell: Wanderlust. It's generously illustrated with high quality photographs of Cornell's work and the text is very informative about the artist, his motivations, working methods and interactions with other artists. This book exceeded my expectations and I recommend it to anyone who admires Cornell's work.

Amazing photos of Cornell’s work

The best book yet on Joseph Cornell. If you are a Cornell admirer, you must have this in your collection.

This is a lovely book, excellent reproductions. My one qualm is that the binding cracks alarmingly when the book is opened, I worry that it might not have the longevity I expect from a hardbound book.

Amazing book , just love

A colorful catalogue the size of a coffee cable book that made a great gift for a Joseph Cornell fan. Many thanks for making this profusely illustrated book available at half price.

I am extremely disappointed that the seller sold an art book with 20 art illustrations cut out of a very expensive exhibition catalog with many other pages sliced at the binding where pages were removed.

great reproductions and text.

This book contains a great selection of Cornell's works covering all his professional career. Wonderful illustrations and very interesting, enlightening texts accompany each one of the catalogue works, all in a serious and profound style but using a clear language affordable to amateurs like me too. Only one of the catalogued works is absurdly reproduced quite smaller than the rest of the exhibited works (altogether eighty), since this plate is full-page too. I mean the number 60, "Untitled - Medici Boy", owned by the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. Anyway, I unreservedly recommend this book to everybody who are interested in Joseph Cornell. Finally, I find also very recommended "Shadowplay, Eterniday" (Thames and Hudson, 2003) over the same subject - the latter unfortunately abuses of the black page background in its layout, beeing superb for the rest.

A beautiful book with lots of information about Joseph Cornell's life and works. Lots of big colour pictures and comprehensive details on each piece of work. The cover design is beautiful. My only negative comment is there is no dust jacket so the cover is unprotected. I have already accidentally marked it!

Good book on a favourite artist.

Lots of good illustrations and full colour plates with commentary, at times a tad pretentious, but always informative. A very useful introduction to Cornell and his world.

Fabulous book detailing the work of this quirky, astonishing artist. My friend, a graphic designer, is especially impressed with the quality of the design, print and 'feel' of the book. An excellent purchase.
