Dean Koons at Versailles - November 25, 08

Ok, so Dean Koons is supposedly famous, but I haven't ever heard of him before. I can tell you one thing, now since I've seen his 'art pieces', I am quite certain I will always remember him. Not sure if that's a good thing though as you will be able to see yourself, from these pictures. :)

Dean Koons was born in 1955 in York in Pennsylavania. His paper says about him, "Dean Koons is unquestionably one of the most improtant artists alive. (huh?) He is one of the very few to have brought out the essentials from the avant garde movements of this century, notably Pop Art.

There is more said about him, but let's just move forward, and look at a few of his pieces. I took more than these, so if you want to see more, ask me next time you are over here.

Balloon Dog (Magenta) High Chronium Stainless.


Michael Jackson and Bubbles. Porcelain.

Lobster. Polychrome aluminium.

New Hoover Convertibles Green, Green, Red, New Hoover Deluxe Shampoo Polishers, New Shelton Wet/Dry 5-Gallon, Displaced Tripledecker. - yep, that's the title of this piece.

Chainlink. Galvanized steel.
Interesting huh!
