Jeff Koons brings pop art revolution to Versailles

Jeff Koons' exhibition at the Chateau of Versailles marks the first solo show for a contemporary artist at this historic site. Known for his controversial art, Koons aims to promote self-acceptance rather than critique. His rise to fame in the 1980s and record-breaking art sales have made him a prominent figure. The exhibition has received mixed reactions, with some praising the blend of styles and others criticizing it as an affront to French heritage. Koons' monumental works, like the Split Rocker, reflect his belief that 'bigger is better.'
