I TRIED TO MAKE WORK THAT ANY VIEWER, NO MATTER WHERE THEY CAME FROM, WOULD HAVE TO RESPOND TO, WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT ON SOME LEVEL 'YES, I LIKE IT'. IF THEY COULDN'T DO THAT, IT WOULD ONLY BE BECAUSE THEY HAD BEEN TOLD THEY WILL BE ABLE TO STRIP ALL THAT DOWN AND SAY 'YOU KNOW IT'S SILLY, BUT I LIKE THAT PIECE. IT'S GREAT'.
Jeff Koons quoted in A. Muthesius, ed., JEFF KOONS, COLOGNE, 1992, p. 138
