Did you know that: Cornell's infatuation with movie stars inspired some of his most famous works, which he created as tributes to the women he adored from afar: Lauren Bacall, Greta Garbo, and Marilyn Monroe; Cornell's genius lay in his transformation of everyday objects into enchanting realms; Cornell's loyalty to family led to his lifetime support of his mother and invalid brother, with whom he shared a modest house on Utopia Parkway in Queens, New York. 72 illustrations, including 47 plates in full color. 600 10 Cornell, Joseph|xCriticism and interpretation. 650 0 Assemblage (Art)|zUnited States. 700 1 Cornell, Joseph. 830 0 Essential series (Wonderland Press) 935 GLADN185279539 957 OCLC xref loaded 20140928 964 PFA PN1998.3.C676S32 2003. |bCAT/A 994 90|bCUY
