Gorey's Worlds,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
An exploration of the artistic and cultural influences that shaped writer and illustrator Edward GoreyThe illustrator, designer, and writer Edward Gorey (19252000) is beloved for his droll, surreal, and slightly sinister drawings. While he is perhaps best known for his fanciful, macabre books, such as The Doubtful Guest and The Gashlycrumb Tinies, his instantly recognizable imagery can be seen everywhere from the New Yorker to the opening title sequence of the television series Mystery! on PBS. Gorey's Worlds delves into the numerous and surprising cultural and artistic sources that influenced Gorey's unique visual language.Gorey was an inveterate collectorhe called it 'accumulating.' A variety of objects shaped his artistic mindset, from works of popular culture to the more than twentysix thousand books he owned and the art pieces in his vast collection. This collection, which Gorey left to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art upon his death, is diverse in style, subject, and media, and includes prints by Eugne Delacroix, Charles Meryon, Edvard Munch, and Odilon Redon; photographs by Eugne Atget; and drawings by Balthus, Pierre Bonnard, Charles Burchfield, Bill Traylor, and douard Vuillard. As this book shows, these artistic pieces present a visual riddle, as the connections between themto each other and to Gorey's worksare significant and enigmatic. The essays in Gorey's Worlds also examine the artist's consuming passions for animals and ballet.Featuring a sumptuous selection of Gorey's creations alongside his fascinating and diverse collections, Gorey's Worlds reveals the private world that inspired one of the most idiosyncratic artists of the twentieth century.Exhibition Schedule: Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, February 10 May 6, 2018
