Description: Proposed Colossal Monument for Battersea Park, London, Drum Set, 1966. Pop artist Claes Oldenburg began to envision his site-specific colossal monuments during the late 1960s. In this lithograph, Oldenburg conceived a giant drum set as a venue for concerts and circuses, correlating parts of the instrument to elements of architecture like wooden sticks as structural supports and cymbals as roofing. Although many of the artist's larger-than-life ideas have been too fanciful to realize, Oldenburg's studies are valuable as documents of the creative process. The subject of numerous retrospective exhibitions, Oldenburg’s work has been exhibited and collected by premiere museums throughout the world.
