The illustrations in the catalogue are taken in part from the notebooks of Claes Oldenburg, a dynamic leader in contemporary art who tries to restore our lost contact with reality without sentimentality and with a fresh naiveté with his monumental ice-cream bar, his lipstick when Yale turned co-ed and many more. In California he has just co-operated with Frank Gehry on a building, where Oldenburg did a monumental pair of binoculars, which serve as entrance to the building.
