| Title | Joseph Cornell and the art of assemblage |
| Author | Long, Sarah E. |
| Abstract/Introduction | Personally, I have always been attracted to mixed media art and decided to explore this interest while concentrating on the work of Joseph Cornell. My first experience with his work is owed to a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago where I was engulfed in a room filled with his fantastical box constructions. It was then that I fully recognized the art of assemblage and realized its unique form of communication, that of the found object. This is very different from my own experience in making art, simply that of drawing and painting. So, when I was faced with the decision of choosing a thesis topic, I chose to challenge myself with an unfamiliar medium. I am not sure I could be more grateful with any other choice. For in the work of Cornell, I have found an immense amount of treasure, with even more waiting to be discovered. |
