Renowned artist Jeff Koons has unveiled his latest monumental sculpture, Split Rocker, to the public at Rockefeller Center in New York City.
A Flower Power Icon
Split Rocker is a towering 37-foot-tall sculpture featuring a colorful combination of flowers, including petunias, begonias, and geraniums. The sculpture is designed in the shape of a half-horse, half-dinosaur hybrid, with the flowers covering every inch of its surface.
A Fusion of Nature and Technology
Koons, known for his bold and often controversial works, has described Split Rocker as a fusion of nature and technology. The sculpture combines traditional gardening techniques with cutting-edge digital design, creating a unique and eye-catching piece of art.
A Symbol of Hope and Joy
Split Rocker is meant to serve as a symbol of hope and joy, especially during these challenging times. The bright colors and whimsical design of the sculpture are intended to inspire feelings of happiness and positivity in all who view it.
A True Feat of Engineering
The construction of Split Rocker was a true feat of engineering, as the sculpture required a complex system of irrigation and lighting to ensure that the flowers remain vibrant and healthy. The attention to detail and precision in the design and construction of the sculpture is a testament to Koons’ dedication to his craft.
A Must-See for Art Enthusiasts
Split Rocker has already become a must-see attraction for art enthusiasts and tourists alike. The sculpture will be on display at Rockefeller Center for a limited time, so be sure to visit and experience this larger-than-life masterpiece in person.
