The artwork titled “Telephone,” created by artist Jeff Koons in 1979, is a sculpture belonging to the Conceptual Art movement. This piece employs the medium of ready-made objects and glass to convey its artistic message.
The artwork features a black rotary dial telephone placed on a reflective glass surface. The reflective surface beneath the telephone creates an intriguing interplay of light and shadow, emphasizing the object’s presence while evoking a sense of duality and introspection. The telephone, a symbol of communication and connectivity, is transformed into an object of aesthetic contemplation through its presentation in this minimalist and conceptual setting.
