About this episode
This episode discusses the controversy surrounding Jeff Koons and the question of what it means to be an artist.
Does delegating what you want art to be and someone else doing it make you an artist? A lot of people do not think that Jeff Koons is an artist because he physically does not touch the artwork to create it. He commissions artist to create the work that he puts his name on. Coming from being a stock broker to being smacked dab in the art world and making millions per art piece is very controversial. In this short episode I give you the end on who he is and why people have a slight gripe about him. Welcome to the Créateur podcast.
