Carved wooden sculpture, hand-painted with oil paints in colours - Signed, numbered and dated on the underside // Seated Ballerina by Jeff Koons is a hand-painted carved wooden sculpture created in 2015. The piece depicts a delicate ballerina, seated on an ornate stool, adjusting her ballet slipper. The soft pastel tones of blue, pink, and white bring a gentle, almost dreamlike quality to the figure, while the detailed carving and oil paint create a lifelike appearance. Koons’ work often explores themes of beauty, innocence, and mass culture, and this sculpture is no exception. The poised and reflective posture of the ballerina contrasts with the whimsical, toy-like style, making it a compelling blend of high art and pop aesthetics. This piece is signed, numbered, and dated on the underside, part of a limited edition of 50 plus 10 artist proofs.

What is appropriation?
Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
