Hardbound. Condition: Very Good. 1st American Edition. Description: Profusely illustrated in black and white and color; the entire book is printed on coated stock, yielding crisp, clear reproductions of the photo images and text (as well as creating an extraordinarily heavy book -- nearly eight pounds). The publisher's blurb reads: ''This landmark publication chronicles the unique collaborative venture of the artists Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in a presentation of twenty-six of their large scale projects -- sculptures created in an architectural scale for urban landscapes from 1976 to 1994. Seen together for the first time are the recent Shuttlecocks for Kansas City, Missouri, and the Inverted Collar and Tie for Frankfurt; the Dropped Bowl with Scattered Slices and Peels for Miami, and the Spoonbridge and Cherry for Minneapolis. Other highlights include Flashlight for Las Vegas; and the Lipstick (Ascending) on Caterpillar Tracks, erected on the Yale University campus in 1969. Individual case histories, recounted from the personal viewpoints of the artists detail the process of development of each of the works, from the time of a sculpture's commission, and the ensuing back and forth flow of ideas between the artists, through sketches and preliminary drawings to three-dimensional models and precise engineering plans, which lead to fabrication and installation.'' BINDING/CONDITION: black cloth; a Near Fine book, with a Near Fine dust jacket. bibliography, artist biographies, contributors. Photo endpapers. 12.25 inches tall by 9.25 inches wide. 583 pages.

Contributors. This is a large and very heavy book and if sent outside of the United States will require additional shipping charges. Claes Oldenburg (January 28, 1929 July 18, 2022) 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. Many of his works were made in collaboration with his wife, Coosje van Bruggen, who died in 2009. Oldenburg lived and worked in New York City. In the 1960s, Oldenburg became associated with the pop art movement and created many so-called happenings, which were performance art related productions of that time. The name he gave to his own productions was "Ray Gun Theater". The cast of colleagues who appeared in his performances included artists Lucas Samaras, Tom Wesselmann, Carolee Schneemann, Oyvind Fahlstrom and Richard Artschwager, art gallerist Annina Nosei, critic Barbara Rose, and screenwriter Rudy Wurlitzer. His first wife (19601970) Patty Mucha (Patricia Muchinski) who sewed many of his early soft sculptures, was a constant performer in his happenings. His brash, often humorous, approach to art was at great odds with the prevailing sensibility that, by its nature, with "profound" expressions or ideas. But Oldenburg's spirited art found first a niche then a great popularity that endures to this day. From the early 1970s on, Oldenburg concentrated almost exclusively on public commissions. His first public work, Three-Way Plug came on commission from Oberlin College with a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. His collaboration with Dutch/American writer and art historian Coosje van Bruggen dates from 1976. They were married in 1977, and continued to work collaboratively for 30 years, developing over 40 public pieces, which they called 'large-scale projects'. Oldenburg officially signed all the work he did from 1981 on with both his own name and van Bruggen's. Their first collaboration came when Oldenburg was commissioned to rework Trowel I, a 1971 sculpture of an oversize garden tool, for the grounds of the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo in the Netherlands. This landmark publication chronicles the unique collaborative venture of the artists Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in a presentation of twenty-six of their large-scale projects---sculptures created in an architectural scale for urban landscapes from 1976 to 1994. Seen together for the first time are the recent Shuttlecocks for Kansas City, Missouri, and the Inverted Collar and Tie for Frankfurt am Main, Germany (both 1994) among others. Individual case histories, recounted from the personal viewpoints of van Bruggen and Oldenburg, detail the process of development of each of the works, form the time of a sculpture's commission, and the ensuing back-and-forth flow of ideas between the artists, through sketches and preliminary drawings to three-dimensional models and precise engineering plans, which lead to fabrication and installation.
