Jeff Koons Versailles Pop Art Exhibition

One of the greatest US pop art artists Jeff Koons made his own exhibition in the Chateau of Versailles. His works had the sharpest contracts with the royal apartments and gardens ever. The 53-year-old artist thinks that it is OK and he feels fine while stirring up Paris. According to his own words: “To be here in Versailles, it feels so profound, it feels so right.”

Frankly speaking, this exhibition can be named the 1st one devoted to the world’s biggest-selling living artist along. The event attracted numerous visitors and it was really fascinating to enjoy them wondering through out the palace with their mouths slightly agape. Most of them were bemused: the royal furnishings and pop works.

But most of them agreed that it was AWFUL! It was like a quizzery, or a kind of mock. The only one thing I liked there was “Large Vase of Flowers” in the queen’s bedroom. They perfectly  matched the overall motif of the palace.
