Jeffrey Koons, better known as Jeff Koons, was born in Pennsylvania on January 21, 1955.
From an early age he approached the world of art at the encouragement of his parents. He thus began to devote himself to and study art in its most traditional sense.
J. Koons made his debut as an artist in 1980 when he exhibited at the New Museum in New York with the installation The New. The artwork consists of simple vacuum cleaners that, deprived of their normal function, become works of art.
It is from this episode that the association Jeff Koons - Pop Art begins to spread: evident is, in fact, the reference to Andy Warhol, which will remain a constant in the entire artistic production of Koons.
Even today, in fact, the artist is generally referred to as Andy Warhol's successor and continuer of pop art and is also often associated with Marcel Duchamp, whose ready-made technique he reinterprets.
Throughout his career, Koons has expressed himself through the use of a wide range of techniques, such as sculpture, painting, installation, and photography, and the use of different materials, including pigments, plastics, inflatables, marble, metals, and porcelain.
