Robert Hughes once wrote that comparing the work of this artist with that of Seward Johnson was like "debating the merits of dog excrement versus cat excrement."

Ads for Gordon's Gin and Hennessy appear in this artist's series centered on alcohol paraphernalia, Luxury and Degradation. This artist and his then-wife, porn actress Ilona Staller, referenced paintings by Bernini and Fragonard in their shoot Made in Heaven, and he used geotextile fabric to design a statue based on a (*) toy pony and a toy dinosaur called Split-Rocker. This artist sculpted life size gold-plated porcelain statues of Michael Jackson and his pet chimpanzee Bubbles, and designed a topiary statue called Puppy, which can be found in front of the Guggenheim Bilbao. For 10 points, name this American sculptor who creates absurdly expensive giant stainless steel statues based on balloon animals.
