Focusing on his evocative and profound references to children and their stories, Children's Stories and 'Child-Time in the Works of Joseph Cornell and the Transatlantic Avant-Garde studies the relationship between the artist's work on childhood and his search for a transfigured concept of time. As it changes the focus from Cornell's boxes to his multimedia works, this study also situates Cornell and his art in the broader context of the transatlantic avant-garde of the 1930s and 40s.
