Jeff Koons - Play-Doh, 1994–2014 - Polychromed Aluminum - Whitney Museum of American Art. Twenty years. That's how long the latest masterpiece Play-Doh by Jeff Koons took to create. Complications due to material finish and Mr. Koons' desired outcome delayed the process until the right finish was achieved. Each separate color piece is matched the the 1994 Play-doh color palette, and is separately made using Aluminum castings. Koons decided to reveal his work at his current exhibition titled 'Jeff Koons: A Retrospective' on display at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
