He is known for his meticulously fabricated works, which often consist of surreal combinations of everyday images such as cartoon imagery, art-historical references, and children's toys. Jeff Koons was born in York, Pennsylvania, in 1955. His work has been exhibited internationally and his most recent solo exhibitions, all in 2008, include presentations at the Château de Versailles, France; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
