Loopy, 1999, by Jeff Koons, sold for £3,401,250 at the Post-War & Contemporary Art Evening Sale in London on 30 June, achieving a new world auction record for a painting by the artist. The work, a rapturous vision of joy, of food, of play, is an exquisite and monumental ode to childhood and innocence that formed the central painting in Jeff Koons' Easyfun series. (RT: 1:09)
