Original photolithograph in colors on Ragcote paper // Fisherman Golfer by Jeff Koons, created in 1986, is a lithograph that captures the artist’s playful engagement with kitsch and pop culture. The image presents a highly polished, metallic figure of a cartoonish character that combines elements of both a fisherman and a golfer, complete with exaggerated features and accessories such as a fishing rod, a golf club, and various tools. The shiny, reflective surface emphasizes Koons' fascination with consumer culture, using familiar objects to provoke thought about taste, value, and mass production. The sculpture-like quality of the image and its pristine, mirror-like finish underscore the artificiality and humor in Koons’ work, inviting viewers to both admire and question the cultural icons of everyday life.

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.
