Hanging Heart

Jeff Koon's source of inspiration lies somewhere between innocent cuteness and candy-coloured sexiness. The American all-rounder likes his role as art's enfant terrible, but there is more to his work than just shocking banality. Jeff Koons targets the cuddly and mucky corners of Western Pop-Society with impressive accuracy. His artistic stance has been a vague one for years, which makes it nearly impossible to pigeonhole him. Koons it far from being a trite cynic. He works with the phenomenons he finds and takes them one step further, this is what makes his works powerful.
