When good sculpture turns bad 2


Jeff Koons has a lot to answer for. His Puppy, constructed out of a steel frame covered with flowers has mutated to Ella a steel frame covered with peaches. The Koons puppy was exhibited in Sydney, and that’s where Ella is exhibited too. Life follows art, well advertising does anyway. Ella, the peach person, is 5 meters high and 12 meters long. It was inspired by someone called Jolene Anderson who apparently has a commitment to healthy skin. Yes, there is a video.
