Gorey's Worlds delves into the numerous and surprising cultural and artistic sources that influenced Gorey's unique visual language. A variety of objects shaped his artistic mindset, from popular culture to the more than 26,000 books he owned and the works of art in his vast collection. This collection, which Gorey gifted to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art upon his death, is diverse in style, subject, and media, and includes prints by Eugene Delacroix, Charles Meryon, Edvard Munch, and Odilon Redon; photographs by Eugene Atget; and drawings by Balthus, Pierre Bonnard, Charles Burchfield, Bill Traylor, and Edouard Vuillard. The essays in Gorey's Worlds also examine such consuming passions as animals-cats in particular-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."-- |cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Gorey, Edward,|d1925-2000|vExhibitions. 600 10 Gorey, Edward,|d1925-2000|xArt collections|vExhibitions. 600 17 Gorey, Edward,|d1925-2000.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00038300 610 20 Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art|vExhibitions. 610 27 Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00753909 650 0 Art|xPrivate collections|zConnecticut|zHartford |vExhibitions. 650 7 Art|xPrivate collections.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00815314 651 7 Connecticut|zHartford.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01207441 655 7 Exhibition catalogs.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01424028 655 7 Exhibition catalogs.|2lcgft 700 1 Monroe, Erin,|eauthor. 700 1 Greskovic, Robert,|eauthor. 700 1 Arluke, Arnold,|eauthor. 700 1 Shortsleeve, Kevin,|eauthor. 710 2 Tacoma Art Museum,|ehost institution. 994 C0|bCKE
