Jeff Koons takes photographs of bunnies for the cover of NYT Magazine, for a ridiculous fee, I'm sure. →

Rather than give the cover to a photographer, that might be a better fit for a periodical that is surely financially strapped, NYT Magazine decides to go with Jeff Koons. My opposition to Jeff Koons is not simply due to the fact that I think he’s very overrated, and that his most interesting work was done over 10 years ago. I think that the cover should have gone to a photographer who might actually need work. But, I suppose, that might not be a “hip” thing for the magazine to do. Who wants to give work to someone that actually needs work? Not NYT Magazine.
