American conceptual artist Mark Dion is an avid collector of natural and artificial marvels. His work-characterized by elaborate installations of found objects-engages the 16th-century European tradition of eclectic and wonder-filled cabinets of curiosities, or wunderkammern. Dion's arresting architectural folly "Curiosity Shop" invites visitors to peer through store windows into a curated world of collectibles and curiosities. This laboratory of wonder embodies Dion's mission of enticing viewers to investigate the ways we categorize and display objects in our everyday world.
