Jeff Koons Rabbit for Thanksgiving



Years ago, New Yorkers may have seen a giant Puppy towering over their Rockefeller Center, this year New Yorkers were shown more of Jeff Koon's work, this time in the form of his Giant Silver Rabbit, which was used as part of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. The figure is owned by Macy's and is expected to be used in future parades by the retail giant, for Koon's fans you may be familar with the backround of the Rabbit, in 1986 Koons created one of his more famous works, a 3 foot high Mylar Easter bunny cast in highly polished stainless steel(see below), this is simply its return.
