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 !

I try to be a truthful artist and I try to show a level of courage. I enjoy that. I'm a messenger.

I'd have to say I've become more aware of my communal responsibility.

I believe in advertisement and media completely. My art and my personal life are based in it. I think that the art world would probably be a tremendous reservoir for everybody involved in advertising.

I'm interested in power.

I don't believe that artists really are interested in money. That's not the motivation for art.
