A seated ballerina in the middle of the Rockfeller Center

In the middle of Rockefeller Center, Jeff Koons has installed a 45-foot-high inflatable nylon sculpture that towers above visitors to the iconic New York City plaza.
The larger-than-life ‘seated ballerina’ — scaled up from the artist’s ‘antiquity’ series — symbolically refers to themes of beauty and connectivity, serving as a contemporary interpretation of the mythological goddess venus.
Hosted by Tishman Speyer, and presented by Kiehl’s since 1851 and Art Production Fund, Koons’ ‘seated ballerina’ is wrapped in a reflective surface. With the idea of ‘reflectivity’ in mind, the installation seeks to raise awareness of national missing children’s month this may, in an effort to support organizations like the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children .
