Yes ...but that was all half a century ago now remember ...and even then, one could argue that Marcel Duchamp was creating art objects in the second decade of the twentieth century that were far more revolutionary and anti-establishment.
Marcel Duchamp 
When you look at the work of Jeff Koons we can see the culmination of these ideas ...but seen from a late-twentieth century (post-modern) context.
Jeff Koons 
Jeff Koons most famous artwork is "Puppy" from 1992. The intention (at least as I interpret it -- koons can be very esoteric with his explanations) was to create an object so monumental, popular, irresistible, and sentimentally seductive ...that it becomes the focal point of a collective experience -- an artwork that is intended to instigate a shared human experience as much as personal one.

I'm glad you find them interesting NarutoRamen ...some contemporary art is weird ...some is offensive, but it can become a part of your life and change the way you see the world around you.
