“Balloon Venus Dolni Vestonice (Violet)” is a sculpture created by the renowned artist Jeff Koons between 2013 and 2017. The artwork, crafted from steel, belongs to the Neo-Pop Art movement and integrates elements of allegorical painting within the genre of sculpture.
The artwork features a sleek, elongated form reminiscent of a balloon, meticulously designed to replicate the contours and reflections characteristic of inflated latex. It stands on a white pedestal, its vibrant violet hue creating a stark contrast with the neutral gallery environment. The piece exudes a sense of playful yet profound abstraction, inviting viewers to ponder its symbolic and aesthetic dimensions.
