There is a gap between labor and the material wealth promised in the concept of the American Dream. Beyond that wealth is security and rest. We have become bound to the hope of this concept, that with grit and hard work one day we’ll reach a similar luxury we see in the 1%.
A symbol of material wealth and capitalism is depicted here with the art of Jeff Koons - who uses factories filled with people laboring over his grandiose ideas. The Balloon Dog is one of his most notable pieces, starting at $42,000 and having sold at auction for $58 million. It has been replicated as a decor piece in interior design for over 20 years.
