The Lonely Palette

Re-ReleaseEp. 49 - Claes Oldenburg's "Giant Toothpaste Tube" (1964)


Listen Later

Today, the art world - and, as he would attest, the world world too - lost a giant, and we're re-releasing our episode from September 2020 in his honor. RIP, Claes Oldenburg, and thank you for plucking art from its spotless frame and returning it to our messy, magnificent plane. Hope you're enjoying that great big floor pie in the sky.
