I just think a real sculptors hands look nothing like Jeff's here, he probably only be sculpting the inside of his nose while some assistant sculptors are working on his work.
So many people think conceptual art is a complete waste of time and that people are fooled badly into buying it. I’m privileged enough to know a lot about the topic so I thought I’d explain it to you. Since the camera was invented there was no need to attempt to recreate a realistic image anymore. Therefore from that point onwards art turned to the creative and expressive side completely, which is why you probably think art galleries today are utterly terrible. The truth is that each piece of art you would call “fake art” is actually just a different type of art to the realistic forms you are used to. In realism art the goal is to attempt to relate your drawing/painting as closely as you can to it’s real life form. Like mentioned before, after the camera was invented there is no need for this, so art from them on turned to focusing on creativity and ideas. Each piece of famous art is mostly known for breaking the boundaries of what art can be, bringing new ideas to the art world visually and sharing stories and various expressions through a visual piece. An example would be the famous artist Picasso, who blurred the lines of what people expected art to be by visualising different angles of the face through one flat canvas. He does this with a new and expressive style which links to his time period (which also made his art historically incredible) world war 2. He captures the different faces/emotions of this depressing time through this new style, although to someone who doesn’t know about his art it looks like a 7 year old was let loose on some paint. This is what conceptual art is: thoughts, ideas, new ways of seeing presented visually. I hope this helped and I would highly recommend you to watch this amazing short video which may help you understand it and hopefully find a piece you enjoy. • What is conceptual art?

@@reuben8912 i didn’t even criticize the art i’m critiquing pretentious art people and i can tell you’re one of them. just wanting to spread your knowledge so u can feel superior to others. i admire conceptual art but you would never know because you don’t know shit!
@@carrierawdog7887 ignore this Reuben fool, he knows nothing. He watched couple of youtube videos and he thinks he qualified.

Jeff Koons is a scammer and a money launderer. It's that simple. This is interesting AT BEST and if it was made by a high schooler it'd not be "worth" this much nor would it get this much attention. This is just an excuse to use name recognition and prestige to move large amounts of money around and dupe a few rich people in the process into buying garbage like this.
Why there are so many haters? While Jeff Koons is making a difference in the world with his creativity. All you can do is write your pathetic comments while living in your mother’s basement. If you can do better than show your creativity to the world otherwise just shut up.
You clearly have no indication of contemporary art practices and the value of skill and craftmanship. Why don't you shut down your computer and go buy more "art" from IKEA.
@@reuben8912 lol let me hear it, I bet youre gonna talk about appropriation. Cant believe there is someone who defends Damien Hirst. Cmon on, "explain us" lol
Love This. All the people complaining are probably the same types who screw up their children's art - because apparently it doesn't mean anything. You munters. Innocence is Everywhere.
@@reuben8912 Thank you for taking all the effort, but I am an art historian from Europe, so you don't have to explain such basics. I never said that art should be mimetic, at least not in photorealistic way. What I however demand of art is beauty, or at least a deep meaning which is intuitive and self-explanatory. Today's art is devoid of material and intellectual value, substituted for cheap shock baiting and wrapped in a colorful tinfoil of random interpretations to boost its value for the taste-lacking market of nouveaux riches who eagerly buy every piece of excrement that can elevate them to the noble and much coveted status of an art conaisseur.
@@reuben8912 Everythin can mean anything. If you've got to google the meaning of an artwork, it does not adequatly convey what it has to say. Shark in formaldehyde... our ancestors would laugh at the degeneracy of our art, it's almost ethnography at this point. If not for the use of chemically complex materials one could think it's some kind of tribal art.
@@reuben8912 wrong. Nobody said that realistic artwork was "needed". Nobody said that this "expressive" art was needed. Nothing is needed actually if u think abt it. And its not like every realistic art is not expressive art. It is, as it shows the effort and the detailing of the artist which is admirable and these "expressive artists" on the other hand who just throw paint splatters on canvases and call it "art"....I don't see no effort, no message, no expressiveness. These 3 are the things that makes the artwork admirable and what people call 'art'
@@reuben8912 there needs to a concept to every artwork for it to have a worth and value and I don't see splattered paint or clay piled upon each other as a concept.
Tout est métaphore c dire que tout est représentation ou encore que tout est art , ce qui dispense pas mal de travailler sur un même tableau pendant 20 ans ……!!?
Jeff Koons has made some great sculptures in the past (Balloon Dog, Rabbit etc), but this has to be his laziest and ugliest work yet. If the play-doh looking clay or whatever material that is was sculpted to look like shapes, then it might be something worth talking about, but this is just the laziest.
There's something missing from this.... Fingerprints
yea...Jeff's prints. Because he did not make thiiiiiiiisssss -_-
...and hair - carpet, human or otherwise
What does it weigh?
I wonder if he captured the smell? I love the smell of Play-Doh! 😊
Oh yeah
Smells like burnt offerings
Shallow
I just think a real sculptors hands look nothing like Jeff's here, he probably only be sculpting the inside of his nose while some assistant sculptors are working on his work.
What's wrong with people making your idea come to life?
everybody here in the comments take them selves more serious than most artists😭😭 ctfuu

what's the piano music? does anybody know??
oh boy...
The ultimate con and lie of the "art" world and their spokes person on full display.
I love the Play-Doh because it's so big and it has all that texture in it all that like I don't know how to explain you're just you're so amazing
They hired 98 people to like this video.
Play this music while I’m taking a morning crap and it’s art. Ladies and gentlemen-Jeff Koons-
Play doh is iconic, pretty cool idea!
When you rich, and bored.
More artists, than pieces of art novadays.
@@reuben8912 im fixed
What exactly does Koons mean by "undercuts"?
I don’t really see the beauty in it. 🤷🏻♀️
the beauty is that super rich people buy this for a ton of money
L. I suppose there’s no accounting for taste. The colors are nice but not worth all that money someone’s going to no doubt drop for it.
Watch them try to push this comment down... but it's THE TRUTH.
Honey, it doesn't matter if it's beautiful. It's a Jeff Koons!
you want us to believe that garbage is also art ... we are idiots yes?

After COVID, I wonder how many of these modern art pieces will be used for money laundering?
The art world isn’t effected by Covid any more than it was the recession of ‘08 when records were broken at Sotheby’s for 100 million per painting
i wonder if all of the vaccine companies and dodgy covid testing companies that popped up did their taxes properly.

Really nice piece but what is playdough?
"His" sculptures? He does not make any artwork, NONE. Never have. It's all done by assistants.
Shut up hater
Don Julio have any other defence for him than shut up hater?
@@reuben8912 go ahead
So did all the great painters. Having assistants and making them do most of the work is nothing unusual in the art world.
that is so cool
Amazing contribution to the art world.
LOL that's a great joke! It is steeped in neo-oblivion sarcasm.
If by amazing you mean you feel like your in amaze of bullshit!
@@reuben8912 no
İs it a real play-doh? İ mean maden by a truely materials? And which materials are they? I need a answer pls :)
It's made of aluminium
The interest in Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst boggle my mind.
Can you enlighten me with why we shouldn’t like them both?
@@YamadaHikari03 How about you "enlighten" us with why we SHOULD, you frikn TROLL.
Agree. If a high school art student made the SAME EXACT WORKS they'd be interesting AT BEST. Not multi million dollar hype pieces.
Jeff Koons has something of his own to say, but Damien Hirst is a plain art thief who stole all his major ideas from John LeKay

*GARBAGE.* This is the children's book The King's New Clothes all over again. 🙄

What type of song are we listening here?
Irritating music. Hard to concentrate on what he's saying.
hes not saying much
