Pink Panther Skateboard
Édition limitée de 200
La Panthère Rose appartient à la série Banality, présentée pour la première fois en 1988. Les œuvres de Banality étaient une métaphore de la culpabilité et de la honte culturelles du spectateur. Koons véhiculait l'idée que l'acceptation de soi peut être source d'émancipation. La sculpture en porcelaine représente une pin-up voluptueuse enlaçant la Panthère Rose. L'œuvre explore le goût, le désir et la profusion de références au sein de notre histoire culturelle. Le diptyque Pink Panther Skateboard, qui inclut les expressions faciales de la Panthère Rose et de la femme dans leur étreinte sensuelle, évoque le contrôle et le lâcher-prise. © Jeff Koons
