Art was something I could do better. It gave me a sense of self.

- Jeff Koons

Highly acclaimed for his works pertaining to popular culture, Jeff Koons is a contemporary artist best known for his kitschy sculptures, created in stainless steel and often finished with a shiny, mirror-like surface as evidenced in one of his most popular works, Rabbit. Koons’ appropriation of popular consumer objects is driven by his desire to create inclusive art, he has previously explained “I try to create work that doesn’t make viewers feel they are being spoken down to, so they feel open participation”. As a sculptor, Koons has employed a number of materials including wood, gold-leaf, porcelain, and flowers – Puppy, a 43ft tall sculpture comprised of stainless steel, was finished with a surface of various flowers such as Petunias, Begonias and Marigolds, all of which would grow for the exact amount of time that the work was exhibited. Koons drew much influence for his art from his time studying in Chicago, he was particularly inspired by the works of Chicagoan artists Ed Paschke and Jim Nutt. (Artist website)

What is pop-art?

Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
