Dime
Store Alchemy : The Art of Joseph Cornell
by Charles Simic
Book Description: The task Charles Simic undertakes in this
diverse, essentially unclassifiable book is one of illumination and tribute.
Rather than constrict his response to Joseph Cornell's surreal art to the
objective terms of critical analysis, Simic sets out to recreate in a different
medium - the written language of the poet - the experience of viewing Cornell's
enigmatic constructions of boxes, collages, and film. Partly an appreciation
of Cornell's work, partly an appropriation of his method, Dime-Store Alchemy
interweaves elements of art history, poetry, and biography in a series
of short texts that create a kind of poetic equivalent to Cornell's visual
art...
