This is the catalogue published in conjunction with a 1975 Walker Art Center survey of six thematic bodies of work - "The Geometric Mouse", "Three Way Plug", "Fagends", "Clothespin", "Typewriter Eraser", and "Standing Mitt with Ball" - by noted Pop practitioner Claes Oldenburg.
Claes Oldenburg was a Swedish-born American sculptor best known for his public art installations, typically featuring large replicas of everyday objects. Another theme in his work is soft sculpture versions of everyday objects. No matter how ordinary his subjects may seem to be, for Oldenburg, a clothespin is never just a clothespin.
