Gifts of Desire by Dicran Tashjian / Cornell, Joseph ; Spector, Buzz., 1992

 Item
Identifier: CC-43506-45578
Scope and Contents

In this homage to Cornell, Buzz Spector "has created a romantic world behind the book by collaging the inside of the box with vintage post cards. Although the homage was published as an edition, each collage is unique and offers subtle commentary on the contents of the book. The post cards of far away places pay tribute to Cornell as an 'Enchanted Wanderer' while the blue plexi-glass covering the collage gives this work the deep blue tone that pervades many of Cornell's boxes." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Bruno's writing indeed contains verbal patterns that signal an unusual sensibility to the shape of of space - whether of the heavens, between people, on a page, or of one's mind." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
