American artist Jeff Koons created a series of steel sculptures between 2010 and 2014 that use a recurring theme in modern art: ballet dancers. Jeff Koons quickly anchored himself in a heritage as diverse as it is classical. From Courbet to Degas, Jeff Koons used their masterpieces as the starting point for a bit more radical position on more than one occasion &#8211; a proud heir of destabilizing conceptions and understanding of art, this American artist never ceases to push the limits of classicism with a technical perfection worthy of the greatest masterpieces in art history. But in Koons\u2019 art, the only message is one of beauty.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">For Ballerinas 2010, Koons takes an approach to color that inches closer to technical prowess &#8211; he also regularly works with engineers. The starting point here is obviously these small porcelain figurines as popular as they are universal. But Koons, as per usual, gives them a spectacular dimension by erecting the sculpture in the imposing size of classical pieces. With a certain minimalism, Jeff Koons gives his Ballerinas 2010 an iridescent color, similar to the ones found on children\u2019s candy wrappers. It\u2019s no mistake to think that by using this signature Koons color, the artist turns a common piece into a solar artwork. This is no doubt the magic of Jeff Koons: injecting a sentiment of ease into an artwork that\u2019s made to be contemplated.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size:16px;\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;\">With an artisanship developed with the aid of on-point technologies, Jeff Koons pursues his exploration by once more succeeding in delving into pop art and conceptual art with an obsessional work with pop culture. By concentrating on unexpected styles and objects that usually disappear the more they\u2019re viewed, the work of Koons takes value and beauty out of the norms of good taste to give them back to these mass market objects. Ballerinas 2010 is part of a series called Antiquity &#8211; a series that began in 2008 to affirm fertility, aesthetics, and the strengths of humanity\u2019s banalities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After having discovered Gazing Ball , let&#8217;s relate the history of an other Jeff Koons treasure .
