Jeff Koons. Man of trust
Description
One of the most controversial artists working today, Jeff Koons follows in the footsteps of Andy Warhol's entrepreneurship, perfectionism, and appropriation of pop culture icons. This program provides an extensive look at Koons's background, professional accomplishments, and personal challenges, articulated through intimate conversations with the artist as well as with collectors and associates. Works featured include Rabbit, Balloon Dog, Michael Jackson and Bubbles, Woman in the Tub, Pot Rack, Winter Bears, and Celebration. In one sequence, the camera follows Koons through a grocery store as he uses everyday packaged items to explain his thought process and aesthetic.
