A performative immersion in the world of contemporary art, where the figure of Jeff Koons serves as a pretext for discovering the intimate thoughts and doubts of an artist grappling with creativity and everyday life, Rainald Goetz invites us on a sightseeing tour of the exclusive world of contemporary art and, with an ironic eye, depicts the escapades of a specimen of this unique genre.
