The next day, Houghtaling and a team
of biologists hauled a box trap the
size of a small
phone booth into the brush and dragged the deer inside.
Claes Oldenburg helped manage the gallery, and in the winter
of 1960 he and Dine created what would become a legendary work, an immersive environment comprising the first iteration
of Oldenburg's The Street (1960) and a new work by Dine called The House (1960), a
phone -
booth -
sized house made from leftover theatrical backdrops that Dine found in the church and covered with an exuberance
of found materials, drawings, and words.
