Jeff Koons attended a dinner party organized by Jeffrey Epstein in 2013, years after the financier was first convicted of soliciting sex from a minor, according to emails released by the Department of Justice last week. The dinner’s guest list also included director Woody Allen and MIT professor Neil Gershenfeld.
In a statement to Hyperallergic sent through his gallery, Gagosian, Koons confirmed that he attended the party but said that he “did not have a relationship with Epstein” beyond that. At the time of the party, Epstein had already served 18 months in jail after pleading guilty in 2008 to charges including soliciting prostitution from a minor in Florida.
