Aluminium multiple with red glaze. Published by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, as an invitation for the opening of the Broad Contemporary Art Museum, lacking the original invitation card and the original box. Unsigned; Unnumbered. // Jeff Koons's Cracked Egg (Red) (2008) is a small but commanding aluminium multiple, cast and finished with a vivid red glaze that gives the broken shell a lacquered, jewel-like intensity. The cracked egg is one of Koons's most loaded symbols -- simultaneously evoking birth, vulnerability, the promise of new life, and the gleaming surfaces of consumer desire. Conceived as an invitation multiple for the opening of the Broad Contemporary Art Museum at LACMA, it connects Koons's Pop sensibility to one of Los Angeles's most significant cultural milestones. Despite its modest scale, the work carries all of the artist's characteristic formal precision: each curve of the fractured shell is rendered with immaculate control, transforming a humble object into something closer to a jewel.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
