I read this title in anticipation of my first trip to the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It's not really good for browsing full color illustrations but it did give me a thorough idea of what holdings I can look forward to. I'm most excited to see works by Henry Darger, Joseph Cornell, Chuck Close, Alice Neel, and Anna Gaskell.
