The stainless steel sculptures by US-artist Jeff Koons became popular in the art market not only for obtaining gigantic prices at auctions but also for the playfulness and lightness of these bronze giants, which became indispensable from the current art discourse. Koons’ „blow-up“ figures act as childhood reminders, creating transcendency despite the rigid material. Their highly polished surfaces give them a sublime charisma, allowing also Hulk (Friends) to be integrated in the Sala terrena. From September, the action figure together with its comic-like friends will join the row of giants, enchanting visitors with its radiating power. ### [Upper Belvedere](https://www.belvedere.at/en/visit/upper-belvedere) **Opening hours:** Monday to Sunday, 9 am - 6 pm **Address:** Upper Belvedere, 1030 Vienna ([Getting there]()) [Tickets](https://www.belvedere.at/en/tickets?location%5B0%5D=1) ## Impressions - ![Polychromed bronze 181 x 123.2 x 66 cm — Exhibition view — © Belvedere, Vienna](https://www.belvedere.at/sites/default/files/styles/equal_height_slider_1x/public/jart-images/_439886223191.jpg.webp?itok=05nXW6mx) - ![Jeff Koons - HULK — Exhibition view — © Belvedere, Vienna](https://www.belvedere.at/sites/default/files/styles/equal_height_slider_1x/public/jart-images/_439886223184.jpg.webp?itok=rK2L2Vxr) - ![Jeff Koons - HULK — Exhibition view — © Belvedere, Vienna](https://www.belvedere.at/sites/default/files/styles/equal_height_slider_1x/public/jart-images/_439886223197.jpg.webp?itok=omAibtRr)
