An American sculptor and painter considered one of the most famous icons of contemporary art, due to works that reference American pop culture. His neo-pop style includes elements of kitsch and grandiosity, and in the 1990s, he became well-known for a series of giant steel sculptures adorned with vibrant colors, depicting toys such as dogs, rabbits, balloons, hearts, and flowers. He transformed these seemingly banal objects into luxurious and dramatic pieces, known for the dazzling reflection created when observed.

Until recently, he held the record for the most expensive works among living artists (a record broken by the sale of a painting by artist David Hockney), and his creations consistently break records in public auctions, surpassing the threshold of around 50 million dollars per artwork.
