allen jones: super freak!

I've always liked Allen Jones's work
but only knew about his furniture and his connection to 
"A Clockwork Orange".
He was a lot more 
versatile artist, sculptor, painter and printmaker,
than I had previously thought.
But that being said,
 I am gonna focus mostly on his
furniture for this first post,
because that's what I like the best!
