"I'm interested in the idea of the unexpected, and how art can surprise us."
"I'm not interested in being an artist who makes things that are difficult to understand."
"I want to create art that is so beautiful that it can inspire awe."
"I want to elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary."
"I think that art should be fun. It should be something that people enjoy."
American contemporary artist whose Balloon Dog and Rabbit sculptures hold record sale prices for living artists; defines high-end commodified Pop. Closely associated with Damien Hirst (YBA-generation peer with similar production-line studio model) and Takashi Murakami (Superflat parallel from Japan). For an intellectual contrast, see Marina Abramović, Serbian-American performance artist — Abramović's body-on-the-line endurance work (The Artist Is Present, 2010) is the precise opposite of Koons's outsourced-fabrication, surface-shine commodification. Abramović's unmediated authorship vs Koons's factory production are the two cleanest poles of late-20th-century 'what is the artist for?' debate.
