Balloon Rabbit (Violet) offers a polished take on one of Koons’ most recognizable forms. Rendered in smooth porcelain and coated in a rich violet finish, the piece draws on the visual language of celebration while inviting a closer look at the tension between mass culture and fine art. Both playful and elegant, it’s a standout example of Koons’ ability to elevate the everyday.
About The Artist
A towering figure in contemporary art, Jeff Koons (b. 1955) collapses the boundary between high art and mass culture. Known for his gleaming balloon animals, kitsch-inspired sculptures, and fearless embrace of commercial aesthetics, Koons has become a symbol of art-world ambition and spectacle. His work navigates irony, excess, and cultural obsession with celebrity and desire—often polarizing, always iconic. At Mania, we appreciate Koons for what he is: a provocateur of pop, and a master of scale who redefined the terms of postmodern luxury.
