Claes Oldenburg

Image result for claes oldenburg sculptures

Claes Oldernburg is an American sculpture who is popular for his large sculptures of daily objects. This sculpture was made of aluminum, paint, and stainless steel. It resides in Minneapolis currently. This artwork weighs about 700 pounds with the cherry being about 30 feet off the ground and the spoon approximately 50 feet long. I think this sculpture is a magnificent work of art because it is very realistic. It's appealing to the eye because, typically, the cherry would slide down the spoon but this sculpture captures a moment of stillness on the top of the spoon.
