Inside the Jeff Koons Studio
by Staff, June 24, 2009
Following up on the last visit to his New York studio in April, we get another interview with famous pop artist Jeff Koons. Once again visiting his workshop, UK’s Channel 4 previews some upcoming pieces from Jeff’s next exhibition, set to take place on July 2nd at Serpentine Gallery (England). Aside from the usual array of over-sized sculptures, we get a closer look into the Popeye series as well. Check it out!

WORD UP!!! totally agree!!!!
It is entirely disgusting that someone who hires a staff to execute “his” artwork, can be called an artist. The man is a workshop owner.
His staff, on the other hand is definitely talented. How much longer can a culture of artists thrive in a society where museums pay millions of dollars for commissioned commercial crap?
Obviously the age of the masters, the idea of art with purpose and meaning has died out, but frankly it is still a shame that this man is not only gaining fame for something he has not achieved himself, but also that his “staff” does not get as much recognition for their hard work and creative abilities.
