THE STORE OF STURTEVANT’S THE STORE OF CLAES OLDENBURG This is meta. In 1961, Claes Oldenburg opened “The Store” in New York’s East Village, from which he sold plaster replicas of mundane objects. Five years later, Elaine Sturtevant, whose practice involved crafting likenesses of artworks, created “The Store of Claes Oldenburg.” Now Reniel Del Rosario takes up the charge. Is it art if it’s a copy of a copy of a hamburger? It is when it pushes the envelope of old beliefs in a contemporary art gallery with merchandising in its business plan. Through Jan. 7.
