About

I consider myself an artful blogger. What more can I really say?

    I guess the Koons people forgot to tie it down…

    I want some cereal now.

    Jeff Koons’ BMW art car concept…
The only reason I KIND of like it is it looks like when the U.S.S. Enterprise has just started warp speed…Of course, that makes it extremely DATED. Way to just phone it in Koons, just like I knew you would.  What? Don’t be upset, you’re the one who made this a habit.

    Skin Fruit opens at the New Museum tomorrow…

    It’s never boring right? Skin Fruit opens at the New Museum tomorrow and I thought I would do a little round up of all the dramz. For your enjoyment:

    • Jeff Koons and Dakis Joannu are not available for interview.
    • What’s in a name?
    • “It would be hard to imagine a creamier puffier interview with a news-involved subject (Dakis Joannou) than this one from Chris Bors on Artinfo. Question: Given that it’s an embarrassment for Artinfo, why did they run it? (True: The mistake is the New Museum’s for doing the show, but Joannou is certainly involved.)” - Tyler Green
    • Charlie Finch is over it.
    • I didn’t realize that this qualifies as celebrity news.
    • Rich people do have cool stuff.

    I will say this though, Skin Fruit is kind of a rad name for a show.

    Jeff Koons Girl with Dolphin and Monkey 2006

So, BMW picked their new art car and they went with…JEFF KOONS!!! Ugh. Could you be more predictable and publicity hungry? No, you probably couldn’t. After all the great art cars of the past, especially Olafur Eliasson’s that I actually had the pleasure to see, this is super disappointing.  I will probably expand upon this later when I have had more caffeine.

Ugh, I’m in a foul mood now.

    Jeff Koons Rabbit


To celebrate the opening of Tate  Modern’s major autumn exhibition “Pop Life: Art in a Material World,” a  giant 53 foot (16 meter) helium balloon by Jeff Koons is being unveiled today at  Covent Garden. It is the first time that Koons’s Rabbit balloon has been shown  in the UK and its residency in the Market Building marks a new relationship  between Covent Garden and Tate Modern.  via…

I like huge balloon sculptures, but my favorite at the Tate has to go to Paul McCarthy.

    Jeff Koons Girl Woods (Dots) 2008

I actually kind of like this.  Weird.

Koons’ new paintings are opening at Gagosian Beverly Hills in November, which is confusing, because I could have sworn that the stupid bicycles were supposed to be there then?
Yeah. They were. Wonder what’s going on?  Does that mean no Aaron Young? Now I’m bummed.

    “If people say they don’t like my work, I feel like a failure.”

    Jeff Koons

    I wonder if Patti Smith is going to hear about this quote?
