It's easier to admire your shoes when you hold them in your hands. It's hard to be a hero when you trip over your Helmut Langs. Its hard to be a rock star when you're not in a band. It's hard to be the avenger with only mirrors at the other end.

Oldenburg spent the summer of 1960 in the historic seaside town of Provincetown, Massachusetts, where he underwent what he would later call "an obliteration by non-city nature of my involvement with the city street." Despite setting aside the theme of the street, Oldenburg retained his interest in making art from what he termed "anti-art materials," swapping cardboard and burlap for driftwood salvaged from the shore. Drawing on the cultural significance of Provincetown as the site of the Pilgrims' first landing in North America (before they moved on to Plymouth), Oldenburg cobbled driftwood into constructions featuring forms of the American flag. He described these assemblages in his notes as "souvenirs," a label that hints at his particular interest in Provincetown as, he wrote, "a town so focused on the commercialization of patriotism and history."
