Koons response if he would be interested in doing ads for lets say spalding or nike:
Koons: I would be extremely interested. I’m not interested in corporations having my work. Some corpora-tions collect my work, that’s fine. But let’s say I use a specific product, like a Spalding basketball. I don’t want Spalding to have my basketball. I don’t do it for that reason. But if Spalding came to me and asked if I would like to work on an ad cam-paign, I’d love to do that.
After doing a little more research I also found it extremely interesting that Koons is simply the 'idea person', which he openly admits. He has no hands on experience in the creation of any of his works. He simply has the idea in his head and he goes to the 'top people' that have the capabilities of carrying out what he wants. I found this interesting considering he gets all the credit, yet puts in no physical labor. I feel as if there should be some credit given to the people who are actually creating this, whether it be their idea or not.
