Description
Gagosian is participating in Art Basel Paris at the Grand Palais this week with a presentation of exceptional paintings, sculpture, and photographs that define many of the key artistic movements of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The booth centers around "Corks (Couple)" (2011–18), a rarely seen polychrome bronze sculpture by Jeff Koons. In this video, Rebecca Sternthal discusses the work, which stands over three meters (10 feet) tall and depicts a cluster of oversize corks with illusionistically detailed textures, wine stains, and imprints of origin and vintage.
