Dear Sophie -
Ok, although this is frankly not my favoite work, I would be remiss not to mention Jeff Koons or Damien Hirst. (I mean, what kind of mother am I?)
JEFF KOONS has a unique eye for pop culture and the iconic singular shiny object. (Ok, I really do like his monkey towel.)
DAMIAN HIRST is a provocateur, seeking to evoke outrage. (Dead animals in tanks of formaldehyde and a diamond studded skull).
Both artists share the thesis "I made you look."
the end.
with love,
mom.
