Joseph Cornell Exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago



Pandora's Box: Joseph Cornell 
Unlocks the MCA Collection
Now through October 16, 2011

I had a chance to see the Joseph Cornell exhibit this weekend at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. The exhibit does an incredible job of 
showing the range of Cornell's influence on contemporary artists, 
specifically those that are part of the museum's collection.

whose work is also on display at the MCA.
