'Puppy'

12 December 1995 – 17 March 1996

Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney

One of the world’s most famous contemporary artists, Jeff Koons, created 'Puppy' outside Sydney’s Museum of Contemporary Art in 1995 as Project 10, celebrating 25 years of Kaldor Public Art Projects. Created as a symbol of love and happiness, 'Puppy' stood 12.4 metres high on the harbourside, carpeted in flowering blooms like a monolithic topiary. Presented as part of the 1996 Sydney Festival, Puppy became one of the most memorable projects and was viewed by more than 1.8 million people in Sydney before relocating to its permanent home outside the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao.
