Koons at Skarstedt
From 1st March to 25th May 2024, Skarstedt’s London Gallery presents a solo exhibition featuring the work of American artist Jeff Koons. The show includes five mural-sized paintings crafted between 2001 and 2013 drawn from Koons’ series: Easyfun-Ethereal, Antiquity, and Popeye.

Jeff Koons employs everyday imagery, pop culture references, and art historical iconography sourced from magazines, archival material and product packaging. The lively compositions were digitally collaged and then hand-transferred in oil paint onto the canvases. Through this process, Koons engaged with pastiche to comment on the repetition of the Art market. This critical perspective is a cornerstone of Koons’ practice, positioning him as a pivotal figure in contemporary discourse on art and commerce.

The exhibition is classically Koons but with a twist, his use of a range of iconography proves his versatility and multifaceted identity and his approachable yet thought-provoking art has cemented his status among the modern art giants. This exhibition at Skarstedt’s London Gallery is a testament to Jeff Koons’ enduring influence and innovative spirit.
