Jeff Koons Goes After San Francisco Shop for Selling Balloon Dog Bookends

Jeff Koons probably isn’t making any new friends this week due to some recent press (and this time not just with overly-dramatic French people with balloons). The artist (but more than likely, his legal team acting for him) recently issued a cease-and-desist letter to the small San Francisco store and gallery, Park Life, for selling a set of bookends that look similar to one of the artist’s most famous pieces, the large, metallic “Balloon Dog.”
