M.Mouse (with) 1 Ear (equals) Tea Bag Blackboard Version (1965)

By Claes Oldenburg

Claes Oldenburg (1929–2022) was a Swedish-American artist renowned for his large-scale public sculptures of everyday objects, often created in collaboration with his wife, Coosje van Bruggen. A key figure in the Pop Art movement, Oldenburg transformed items like hamburgers, clothespins, and spoons into monumental, whimsical works that challenged traditional ideas of art and scale. His playful yet thought-provoking pieces invite viewers to see the ordinary in extraordinary ways.

The Artist

Claes Oldenburg

A very public artist, Claes Oldenburg is the artist behind a number of high profile public sculptures seen in cities in the United States. His works are typically highly creative and include the clothespin near City Hall in Philadelphia, a giant rubber stamp in Cleveland, and a giant tube of lipstick on caterpillar tracks at Yale University. The Swedish-American artist studied art history and literature at Yale University between 1946 to 1950 and was a member of the Pop Art movement in the 1960s. A prize winning artist, Oldenburg has had his work displayed at the Whitney, the Guggenheim, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the National Gallery.
