25 years in the making, PILGRIMAGE Wonder, Encounter, Witness is a visual and verbal record of Wagner's multi-decade quest throughout the world. It opens with photo collages, maps and brief contextual material describing "where I went, what I saw, what I did, what I gave, what I received." The heart of the book is color reproductions of the 17 paintings in Wagner's Pilgrimage exhibition, accompanied by color accents and two sentence blurbs that invite the reader to explore each work of art. The meaning of each painting is elucidated by an anecdotal story found in the third section of the book, identified by color details cropped from the painting.
