Jeff Koons draws inspiration from advertising and entertainment. Jeff Koons has stated his artistic intention is to communicate with the masses.
In an appearance on The Colbert Report, Jeff Koons discussed his inspiration for creating the Balloon Dog Sculptures from the Celebration Series Jeff Koons told Stephen Colbert I've always enjoyed balloon animals because they’re like us. We’re balloons. You take a breath and you inhale, it’s an optimism. You exhale and it’s kind of a symbol of death.
Although Jeff Koons larger sculptures fetch prices in the millions, the Artist also creates original signed and numbered multiples at a lower price point so anyone can own a museum quality Jeff Koons work of art.
