拍品专文

"His pin-and-yarn-encrusted boxes echo those of Joseph Cornell, just as his life (as seen through his work) mirrors that artist’s in its insularity and in the belief it seems to evince that all of the material one needs to create art (both psychic and physical) can be found within one’s home" (M. Weinstein, “Lucas Samaras.” Artforum, Vol. 30, No. 6, February 1992, pp. 118).
