Koons Balloon-Dog Battle Ends
According to The Bay Citizen, the Jeff Koons balloon-dog book-end fiasco has come to an end (pun intended).
Park Life’s co-owner, Jamie Alexander (defendant), noted that the store did not agree to a confidentiality agreement about their resolution with Koons, “which was important to him, as he and lawyer Jed Wakefield saw this as a win for underdogs. ‘This is a victory for the little guy standing up to a bully. Also, it’s about the absurdity of the art world,’ said Alexander.”
