More quotes by Jeff Koons
Art is obsolete now. New technologies are taking over.
Jeff Koons
The first thing that any good artist has to develop is a sense of independence from the artworld. What really destroys a young artist is insecurity, the fear that everything could be taken away at any moment.
Jeff Koons
Art is something that happens inside us. We look at things in the world, and we become excited by them. We understand our own possibilities of becoming. And that's what art is.
Jeff Koons
I like to look at everything and appreciate seeing the different things that have meaning to people.
Jeff Koons
As an artist, I've always wanted to participate in the dialogue of art with other artists.
Jeff Koons
I'm interested in power.
Jeff Koons
I don't like being naïve about the market, and I always try to make things as great as I can. Then I hope that there's an audience that enjoys them, and that hopefully those things get protected.
Jeff Koons
I always liked Disney films. To this day I think 'Bambi' is great.
Jeff Koons
Whenever you finish an artwork and the viewer comes and views it, at that moment you've given up control.
Jeff Koons
I try to be a truthful artist and I try to show a level of courage. I enjoy that. I'm a messenger.
Jeff Koons
I spend much more time looking at art history and at different references to art than I do at actual objects.
Jeff Koons
I believe that my art gets across the point that I'm in this morality theater trying to help the underdog, and I'm speaking socially here, showing concern and making psychological and philosophical statements for the underdog.
Jeff Koons
I'm really not a person who consumes a lot. I don't have a sports car.
Jeff Koons
A photograph for me does not have a sense of spiritual seduction, it does not have an essence, that this is something that permeates and which is eternal through time.
Jeff Koons
I've always enjoyed feeling a connection to the avant-garde, such as Dada and surrealism and pop art. The only thing the artist can do is be honest with themselves and make the art they want to make. That's what I've always done.
Jeff Koons
Abstraction and luxury are the guard dogs of the upper class.
Jeff Koons
Art was something I could do better. It gave me a sense of self.
Jeff Koons
I think about my work every minute of the day.
Jeff Koons
People have different ideas, emotional ideas, of what certain words mean, and they think of irony as something that's more associated with being cynical-it's kind of a put-down.
Jeff Koons
When people make judgments they close all the possibility around them.
Jeff Koons
