Koons on the Attack!
I got word over the holidays that Park Life gallery (San Francisco) received a cease and desist letter from Jeff Koons' lawyers calling for an "immediate cessation" of the reproduction, advertising, distribution, and sale of its own Balloon Dog Bookend.Whoa, there, Koons--isn't this what you're all about? Does Koons own the image of a Balloon Dog? Afterall, his famous sculptures are usually larger-than-life-sized, and are of course also identifiable by their mirrored surface. Since this bookend has neither of those qualities, is the issue simply the balloon dog itself? Are you also going after the following balloon dog lovers??

Feel free to comment with your thoughts on the matter.
