About Balloon Venus Hohlen Fels

“Balloon Venus Hohlen Fels,” crafted by the esteemed artist Jeff Koons between 2013 – 2019, is a notable work in the Neo-Pop Art movement. Employing steel as his medium, Koons created this sculpture to celebrate the enduring allure of the prehistoric Venus figurines, reinterpreting them through a contemporary lens.

The artwork depicts a glossy, magenta-colored figure, seemingly inflated like a balloon. It showcases a voluptuous and abstracted form, reflecting light off its smooth, mirror-like surface, and exuding a playful yet profound aesthetic. The shape is both organic and reminiscent of ancient fertility statues, merging historical context with modern materials and sensibilities. Set against a stark, minimalist backdrop, the sculpture commands attention and invites contemplation.
