The slippage or \"split\" between the different halves of the heads gives an almost Cubist aspect to the composition. As the model was enlarged to the scale of a small house, the split became an opening, a profile, and a light shaft.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e- 56 Pages \u003cbr\u003e- \u003cspan\u003e12.7 x 0.5 x 10 inches\u003cbr\u003e- Published by Gagosian \/ Rizzoli, April 28, 2015\u003cbr\u003e- Written by Larry Gagosian (Foreword), Jerry Speyer (Contributor), Nicholas Baume (Contributor), Jerome de Noirmont (Contributor), Laurent Le Bon (Contributor)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LACMA Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45927708819641,"sku":"30754","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0049\/9292\/files\/81gXKiA0nkL._SL1500_30e16e0d-f1e3-45ba-ba43-8f1e27edb822.jpg?v=1769035107","url":"https:\/\/www.thelacmastore.org\/products\/jeff-koons-split-rocker","provider":"LACMA Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
