Claes Oldenburg



I chose the "Giant Shuttlecocks" created by Claes because I liked how he took something small and blew it up. Claes is known for his creations of magnifying small objects and creating masterpieces out of them, and disorienting the normal view of objects.  Outside the Nelson- Aktins Mueson of Art, are four badminton birdies composed by Claes in 1994. They are all positioned in different ways, being able to see the birdies from different angles. These are composed of aluminum and fiber reinforced plastic.
