Jeff Koons, on right, with student working on 'Head of Zeus'

Jeff Koons’  is famous for outsourcing his paintings to a team of skilled employees who toil for months on precise, labor-intensive canvases.

But one painting created by the hand of  Koons (see photos for evidence) will be sold tonight at the annual ‘ARTrageous’ benefit dinner and auction. The event benefits the Edwin Gould Services for Children and Families.The Head of Zeus, which relates to Koons’ series of mythological paintings, is a gouache on paper estimated to sell for $25,000.

Koons worked on the painting, along with seventeen pint-size and teenage collaborators in late April. I swung by his West Chelsea studio for a peek.  His wife Justine was also hard at work on a collage-based piece, inspired by their recent travels to Southeast Asia.

Francesco Clemente and Chuck Close are among artist guests expected to attend tonight’s festivities. These events have raised $15 million over the past 10 years. Tonight’s honorees include painter Ross Bleckner and framer Eli Wilner.
