Color screenprint on Arches. Signed and numbered in pencil. Published by the Friends of the Philadelphia Museum of Art; printed by Chromacomp Inc., New York, with the artist's blindstamp Literature: Axsom & Platzker 103 // A seminal screenprint from Claes Oldenburg's Pop-era exploration of monumental everyday objects. This witty 1972 composition juxtaposes a towering golden-ochre clothespin — Oldenburg's proposal for a colossal Philadelphia sculpture — with a small inset photograph of Brancusi's The Kiss, drawing a provocative formal parallel between the humble domestic fastener and one of modernism's most celebrated sculptures. Printed on Arches paper with the artist's blindstamp, this edition of 200 is a cornerstone of post-war American printmaking.

What is art fabrication?

Art Fabrication is a process used in the production of technically challenging or large-scale artworks. It occurs when a designer or artist is unable to fully realize their concept or design on their own and seeks assistance from a fabrication studio. These studios are equipped with specialized machinery, resources, and skilled labor necessary to execute complex art projects to a high standard.
