Wynn Las Vegas continues its appreciation and commitment of public art as it unveils Jeff Koons’ sculpture Tulips. The transparent color-coated sculpture is made from a mirror-polished stainless steel that will illuminate Wynn Theater rotunda at Wynn Las Vegas.

“Many people believe that Jeff Koons is one of the most important living artists on canvas and in sculpture in the world today. I’m happy to be one of those people and particularly delighted to share with our guests his magnificent creation of the Tulips sculpture, which is now gracing the intersection of Wynn and Encore in our resort, near our showroom lobby. If you see them you will find the experience totally delicious.” said Steve Wynn, Wynn Resorts Chairman and CEO. Photo Credit: Barbara Kraft

Tulips is part of the Koons’ Celebration series which is one of the most complex and biggest sculpture in the series. The sculpture is a stainless steel bouquet of twisted balloon flowers which is plated in a vibrant spectrum of color and a high mirror polish. The sculpture’s glossy surface as well as its color palette gives a reflective effect for the viewer and itself. Koons has been successful in creating an impression that the sculpture is a weightless object when ironically it is heavy. The 3 tons sculpted stainless steel sculpture was acquired in November 2012 at an auction for a price of $33,682,500.

Koons’ Tulips represents the range of concepts and modern interpretation relevant to the contemporary world. His sculpture is part of the Celebration works which explores the child-like innocence concept and chart the milestones of the passing year, represented in this instance, Spring. Identified as a flower that bloom for a short time, the medium used in Tulips invokes immortality, durability and the species’ endurance. The use of the pristine and smooth medium presents the viewers an image of simplicity and joy. Koons is also inspired with themes including life, death and sexuality.

“Tulips is a symbol of hope and the strength of life’s energy. It reflects the viewer to affirm the viewer’s existence. I am thrilled to be in the Wynn collection. Steve Wynn is known for collecting great works of Modern and Contemporary art so to be able to have my sculpture, Tulips, included in his collection has profound meaning to me,” said Jeff Koons.

About the artist
Jeff Koons was born on 1955 at York, Pennsylvania. Koons studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He also studied in Baltimore at the Maryland Institute College of Art where he received a BFA in 1976. Currently, he lives and works in New York City.

Koons received commendations for his public sculptures including Puppy (1992) and Split-Rocker (2000). Puppy, monumental floral sculpture, is shown a Rockefeller Center and later on become a permanent display at the Guggenheim Bilbao. The Split-Rocker was installed at Fondation Beyeler, Papal Palace in Avignon and the Palace of Versailles.

Koon’s cultural achievements have brought him numerous awards and honors. Koons received in 2009 a Singleton Copley Award from the Royal Academy of Arts and he also received The Governor’s Awards for the Arts Distinguished Arts Award. He was also promoted by President Jacques Chirac as Officie de la Legion d’Honneur. He received the first-ever Medal of Art from Secretary of State Clinton as he participated in the U.S. Department of State’s Art in Embassies program.

Donny & Marie will continue their performances at Flamingo Las Vegas until 2013 giving entertainment for their sold-out audiences. The duo was recently voted by Las Vegas Review-Journal’s readers which includes “Best Show,” “Best All-Around Performers” and “Best Singers.”


“Donny and I are thrilled to have extended our residency here at Flamingo Las Vegas, which has become a wonderful second home to us. Who knew that when we first signed a limited six-week engagement back in 2008, that it would turn into a multi-year run! It is a dream come true for us,” Marie said.

Donny explains, “When we first wanted to return to Vegas and were looking for showrooms, I saw the one at the Flamingo and immediately knew that this was it, this was the one. It was traditional Vegas, and it was intimate enough yet big enough to support a larger production show. It was a perfect fit.”

President of the famed center Strip property Rick Mazer said, “We couldn’t be more thrilled to extend Donny & Marie’s run at Flamingo Las Vegas. Not only are Donny & Marie some of the Strip’s most popular entertainers, but they’ve truly become part of our family. We’re proud and honored to have them call the Flamingo ‘home’ and we know their fans will be just as ecstatic to learn they’ll have the opportunity to see them perform here throughout the year.”

Donny & Marie share five decades of entertainment in a non-stop, 90-minute show of live singing, dancing and music. America’s most-loved brother-sister duo features some of their chart-topping hits such as “Paper Roses,” “Puppy Love,” “I’m Leavin’ it (All) Up To You,” “Soldier of Love” and “Morning Side of the Mountain.”

“A Beautiful Life” which is the recent number one hit is part of the unmatched harmonies that continues today. The song is included in the 2011 duet album “Donny & Marie.”

Donny has delivered an impressive performance, including hits from his solo career, with rockin’ vocals and innovative choreography from the modernized hip hop version of The Osmond Brother’s classic “Yo-Yo.” This proves why he was voted by America to be the season nine’s winner of ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars.”

Marie performs a blazing hot country music style with a mash-up of “These Boots Were Made For Walkin’” and “Walk this Way” by Aerosmith. As she performed, audiences will feel a country fair stage on fire with the crystal-encased guitar and the line dance with four muscle-toned cowboys.

Pawn Stars Las Vegas Experts Featuring Autograph Sessions At Gold & Silver Pawn In 2013

Pawn Stars along with the Gold & Silver Pawn team announced the autograph sessions of the star of the show as well as the experts that will be held this 2013 as filming allows.


Owner of Gold & Silver Pawn and star of Pawn Stars Rick Harrison said, "It took some serious planning and trial runs but we think we now have a system that works to allow more fans to meet us and the experts on the show. That was the one piece missing to a great experience when visiting Gold & Silver Pawn." Located at 713 South Las Vegas Blvd., the small store is visited with over 4,000 people every day and film taking also takes place starting at 7 a.m. and ends at 5 p.m. every weekday year-round. The busy schedule and space are the challenges that one team at Gold & Silver Pawn have overcome.


Once a day during the week, the autograph sessions will take place at random times depending on the availability of the Pawn Star or expert and when filming allows. Signings begin from Monday through Friday with the following dates: January 7 to February 22, March 11 to April 5, April 22 to May 24, June 3 to 28, September 3 to October 11, November 1 to 22 and December 2 to 20.

"Obviously production of the show comes first and is not always predictable, so we will fit the signings in between those times, which is why we cannot set a firm schedule,” store manager Theo Spyer explains. Fans will have a chance to meet the Pawn Star and take photos while 100% of the purchased merchandise for the star’s signature will go to charity. When an expert is signing, a charitable component will be attached to their session. As weekends are no filming days, Saturday autograph signings will be scheduled at a later time and will depend on the stars and experts availability. It may be scheduled and announced in advance.

The fans have been excited in last month’s trial runs and they are pleased to meet the experts and stars. "We knew we needed to find a way to engage with our fans more completely and I’m glad we found the right opportunity to add it into their experience. I find meeting all the people and making their visit to Gold & Silver Pawn cooler is a great addition to their overall experience at the store. The fans love that we allow them to help us give to charity, too," Austin "Chumlee" Russell said.

Gold & Silver Pawn is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. every day and from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. that serves as the night window. The store is located at the famous Las Vegas Strip in downtown and open year-round. The store is owned by Rick, son Corey and dad Richard, the three generations of Harrison family, and it is the home to the show “Pawn Stars”.
