bubbles and michael

jeff koons in lon­don with a major new exhi­bi­tion. what­ev­er your opin­ion, or what you believe about koons, his work can’t be ignored as a phe­nom­e­non that was at the cen­tre of art in the ‘eight­ies, but how rel­e­vant is it at the end of the ‘noughties? his famed kitsch rep­re­sen­ta­tion of michael jack­son and his pet chimp, bub­bles, are for­tu­itous­ly top­i­cal, but does his work have any real sub­stance, and how does it look after the bub­ble has burst? more to follow.
