Abstract:
In this paper we will show how Jeff Koons has managed to
combine the landscape sculpture and architecture realizingt an interesting
series of the floral starting from 1992 until 2002. The novelty brought by
the Koon’s works is given by the shape and size of the entire series. These
works represent the form of the pet puppies, the Terrier race, oversized
up to a 13 meter height. The flower pots are supported by metal frames.
Although the flowers are perennial, these floral arrangements look
wonderful and they need a lot of care by qualified personnel. The visual
effect of such floral arrangements is special and for this it is worth the
effort. Until now, the artist Jeff Koons has created several of these floral
arrangements located in different contries in the world, such as: The
Schloss Arolsen, Germany during Documenta IX, 1992, Guggenheim
Museum, Bilbao, Spain, 1997, The Brant Foundation, Greenwich,
Connecticut, 2002. The artistic quality of this series of pet puppies is
controversial because the art critics have a different opinion about it.
Desipe this, art collectors are still interested in floral arrangements.
Placed in different locations these works get on different meanings
aesthetic and managed to impose itself as an argument in support of the
contemporary artistic approach.
