Jeff Koons


 

Jeff Koons (born January 21, 1955 in York, Pennsylvania) is an American contemporary artist and sculptor. As a teenager he revered Salvador Dali, to the extent of visiting him in the Plaza Hotel. He attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the Maryland Institute College of Art, and studied painting, but then worked as a Wall Street commodities broker, whilst establishing himself as an artist before recognition in the 1980s. He set up a factory-like studio in a SoHo loft on the corner of Houston and Broadway in New York, with over 30 staff, each assigned to a different aspect of producing his work, in a similar mode to Andy Warhol's Factory (and, for that matter, Renaissance artists).
