The richly illustrated essays in Cabinet of Curiosities records the
creative processes behind an installation designed by contemporary
artist Mark Dion at the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum at the
University of Minnesota, a collaboration of museum staff, students,
and collection curators. Cabinet of Curiosities offers commentary on
the ways in which collecting has undergirded the creation of
knowledge within universities and in Western society.
