4.0 out of 5 stars review of Large Scale Works, June 3, 2002
By 
Lane Banks (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Claes Oldenburg, Coosje Van Bruggen (Hardcover)
An excellent overview of Oldenburg's large scale works. The introductory essay by Celant is tedious and overlong, and his literary style is oblique and dense, although he does make some insightful comments. Outstanding are the photographs of both the fabrication and installation of Oldenburg's sculptures, and Oldenburg's own comments about the history of each work, including how the designs changed as the work progressed. His explanations reveal his liberal use of free association and multiple meanings that are inherent in all his mature works. The book also includes numerous drawings by Oldenburg of alternate versions of the finished sculptures, as well as drawings for pieces that remain unexecuted.
