Contemporary artist
Jeff Koons is one of the most prominent and most debated artists working today, known for mirror-polished stainless-steel sculptures such as Balloon Dog and Rabbit.
Jeff Koons is an American artist (born York, Pennsylvania, 1955) recognised for transforming everyday objects into monumental icons — most famously his balloon animals rendered in mirror-finished stainless steel. His work sits at the centre of contemporary art's biggest conversations, dividing critics between those who see art-historical brilliance and those who see spectacle, and it commands record prices: his Rabbit sold for $91.1 million, a record for a living artist.
Fittingly for an artist obsessed with surface and presentation, jeffkoons.com was designed in direct collaboration with Squarespace. Koons became the platform's fourth cultural collaborator - after Björk, Magnum Photos and Rick Rubin - and co-created a template called "Reflect," a nod to both his polished surfaces and the contemplation his work invites. The result is a minimalist black-and-white site, available in six languages, that gathers his entire four-decade portfolio in one place and lets the art take centre stage without distraction.
