Koons at Sunset



If you haven't been up to the roof at the Met to see Jeff Koons' whimsical POP sculptures, choose a Friday or Saturday night and make a sunset drink of it. There are cocktails on offer named after the works -- Balloon Dog/yellow (top), Sacred Heart/Red/Gold and Coloring Book (bottom, above).

The very idea that Koons became a commodities trader in the early '80s (after spending a few years at the membership desk at MoMa) to finance his art is fascinating. How smart this man is. Definitely worth drinking to.
