In an essay from the book, Donald Kuspit notes that Quinn’s artistic drive is preserved not only in his own works, but in his vast collection of art, artifacts, and objects. “He was clearly a connoisseur,” writes Kuspit. The acting talent that earned Quinn a place in the “cultural firmament” is celebrated by Tom Roberts. Anecdotes by Katherine Quinn and a contribution by longtime friend Kirk Douglas add a personal dimension.

Quinn’s abiding vision, reflecting his sophisticated and inventive visual sense, is reproduced in this superb edition. It is a rare chance to see the world by the light of his expansive imagination.
