Re: Artists & Paintings

Here is a sculpture by Jeff Koons called 'Balloon Flower'



It is being auctioned in London at the end of this month.

A short video interview with Jeff Koons about this sculpture.

Re: Artists & Paintings

It is typical Koons actually. He often talks about the erotic aspects of his sculptures ...and how his art is about humanity etc. He is an interesting character, almost like a salesman. Before he became a famous artist, he worked as a commodity broker on Wall Street -- and he has always been very aware of the commercial aspects of the art world.

Koons is so hot right now. I suspect this Balloon Flower sculpture will make over $20,000,000
