Dan Flavin's fluorescent light tube sculptures used the objects' eerie glow to give the area around them an unusual energy. Marcel Duchamp is famous for his urinal readymade "Fountain," while Jeff Koons employed vacuums in his early work. Dali created a Lobster Telephone, and trash art is a genre unto itself.

"A Subtlety" was housed in an old sugar plant and depicted a slave woman naked except for a headscarf in the pose of a Sphinx. The sculpture fused ancient art with the abuses of American slavery in a massive sculpture.

Jeff Koons is a controversial modern sculptor, as he has often turned his eye to pop culture subjects considered outside the realm of high art. Notably, he has a series called "Banality," and has constructed immense metallic sculptures of balloons twisted into animal shapes. While his subjects tend to be "lighter" compared to his contemporaries, like George Segal, Koons' skill with steel and his non-traditional subjects have been highly influential on younger generations of artists, including Damien Hirst and Mike Leavitt.
