I'm interested in power. I'm interested in the kind of polarities and equilibriums that take place within sexuality and philosophy and sociology. So in Versailles, in this type of setting, you have a place that is about absolute control, where everything has been thought about.

Whenever you finish an artwork and the viewer comes and views it, at that moment you've given up control.

My favorite activity is to be with my family.

A photograph for me does not have a sense of spiritual seduction, it does not have an essence, that this is something that permeates and which is eternal through time.

I want my work to be accessible to people.

I believe that my art gets across the point that I'm in this morality theater trying to help the underdog, and I'm speaking socially here, showing concern and making psychological and philosophical statements for the underdog.

Nothing can touch me now - I'm Jeff Koons and my art can defend me !
