Limited Edition of 2,300 — Produced by Maison Des Marques
A radiant symbol of joy, innocence, and artistic mastery, Jeff Koons’ Balloon Dog (Orange) stands as one of the most celebrated works from his acclaimed Celebration series — a body of art begun in the mid-1990s that reflects on life’s most universal moments: childhood, festivities, and renewal.
Infused with both playfulness and sophistication, the Balloon Dog evokes the cheer of a child’s party while concealing deeper layers of meaning. As Koons himself describes, “It is about celebration and childhood and color and simplicity — but it’s also a Trojan horse.” Beneath its whimsical exterior lies a reflection on art, value, and the beauty found in everyday objects.
Originally realized as monumental sculptures in mirror-polished stainless steel, the porcelain edition masterfully captures that same brilliance. Its lustrous orange finish emulates the reflective surfaces of the original works — a tribute to precision, craftsmanship, and the artist’s relentless pursuit of perfection.
Produced in collaboration with the legendary porcelain atelier Maison Des Marques, the edition demanded an unprecedented level of technical innovation. Each piece embodies the union of contemporary art and traditional French savoir-faire — a true icon of modern sculpture and one of the defining works of our time.
