Original offset lithograph on wove paper. - Hand signed and numbered by Oldenberg - Printed by Landfall Press Inc., Chicago and published by Multiples, Inc., New York. - Literature: Axsom/Platzker 137 // Fagends Carved in Rock Fagend Canyon by Claes Oldenburg is a 1975 limited edition lithograph that captures Oldenburg's characteristic playfulness and unique perspective on everyday objects. This piece, featuring elongated forms resembling cigarette butts embedded within an earthy, rock-like landscape, reflects his fascination with mundane items transformed into monumental structures. The subtle earthy tones and textured strokes evoke a sense of erosion and permanence, contrasting with the ephemeral nature of cigarettes. Oldenburg’s approach humorously monumentalizes these discarded remnants, inviting viewers to reconsider the mundane through a lens of art and permanence. The print is hand-signed and limited to an edition of 50, enhancing its rarity and appeal to collectors.

What is conceptual art?
Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics. Many conceptual artworks can be created by anyone simply by following written instructions. The concept or idea is the most essential aspect of the artwork.
