Strand Notes
An in-depth study of artist Jeff Koons's entire oeuvre to date. From kinky to kitsch to conceptual, Koons's art is anything but conformist. Stirring the art world in the 1980s with his unapologetic basketball sculptures & stainless steel toy blow-ups, Koons has been regarded as something of an 'enfant terrible', a reputation confirmed in the early 90s via works depicting him having sex with then wife Cicciolina, the Italian porn star/politician. This exhaustive monograph begins with an interview conducted by Ingrid Sischy that puts the Koons oeuvre in context. Arranged in chronological chapters. Addenda. Illus. 606p.

Here comes the standard edition
The definitive work on the most controversial artist of his generation: see the exhibition in Berlin and remember why you've always loved Koons, even though you'd love to hate him--he's not only richer, but better looking. Then plunge into this Taschen berwerk and revel in the kinky and kitsch, but always conceptual art of Jeff Koons. Basketballs in tanks Stainless steel blow-ups Topiary dog sculptures Michael and Bubbles in porcelain. No artist since Warhol has made the banal appear so profound, and the trivial carry such import.
Includes a biographical essay, analyis of Koons from a European perspective, and a scholarly study of his work. With hundreds of large format full color images, it traces Koons' career from 1979 to today. A sumptuous objet d'art--he says so himself--and the definitive overview of Koons' work. Text in English, French, and German
