Jeff Koon with his famous Pink Panther sculpture
Jeff Koon's sculpture of the Pink Panther hugging a bare-breasted blonde is coming to New York for auction on May 10. It will bring around $20 to $30 milllion.
Three of these Pink Panther editions were made. One was sold in 1999 at Christie's for $1.8 million. The others are in the Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.
I actually love the way Pink Panther appears on this sculpture and his hands on her back are looking so cute. If only the blonde should have been slightly nicer.
