Metropolitan Museum of Art: Balloon Dog

From a trip to the Met's Cantor Roof Garden last summer. Jeff Koons, Balloon Dog (Yellow), 1994-2000. The more than 10-foot-tall Balloon Dog (Yellow) is based on balloons twisted into the shape of a toy dog; the highly reflective and brightly colored surface gives the appearance of an actual balloon in a form that would delight a child but would also fascinate any student of Freud.
