Claes Oldenburg | Tea Bag | 1972 | 70 x 50 cm | Graphic art | signed | Modern art |
||
The subject of the lithograph, which masterfully captures nothing but a tea bag, is rather characteristic of Oldenburg. The artist’s entire oeuvre focuses on monumentalizing objects of everyday use, on ironical lifting consumer goods up to the consumerist pedestal. The lithograph, executed in the 1970s, is a precious collector’s item and was published in the series of 100 pieces, all of them signed.
