'''Allen Jones''' RA (born 1 September 1937) is a British [[pop art]]ist and erotic art sculptor, best known for his life-sized sculptures of fetishised women.
==Early life==
Jones was born in [[Southampton]] and from 1955 to 1961 studied at [[Hornsey College of Art]]. In 1960 he was expelled from the [[Royal College of Art]], where his contemporaries were [[R. B. Kitaj]], [[Peter Phillips (artist)|Peter Phillips]], [[David Hockney]] and [[Derek Boshier]].<ref>[http://www.phinnweb.org/livingroom/ILikeToWatch/allenjones/ Allen Jones biography at pHinnweb.]</ref> From 1961 to 1963 Jones taught at [[Croydon College of Art]].
==Career==
Jones' exhibition of [[erotic]] [[sculpture]]s, such as the set, [[Hatstand, Table and Chair|''Hat Stand'', ''Table'' and ''Chair'']] (1969), are studies in [[forniphilia]], which turn women into items of [[human furniture]]. Much of his work draws on the imagery of [[Rubber and PVC fetishism|rubber fetishism]] and [[BDSM]].

The sculptures in the [[Korova Milk Bar]] from the 1971 film ''[[A Clockwork Orange (film)|A Clockwork Orange]]'' were based on works by Jones after he turned down the request by [[Stanley Kubrick]] to design the set for no payment.<ref name="Telegraph: Jones">{{cite news|last=Gayford|first=Martin|title=Allen Jones: The day I turned down Stanley Kubrick|url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/art/3668398/Allen-Jones-The-day-I-turned-down-Stanley-Kubrick.html|publisher=''[[The Daily Telegraph]]''|date=8 October 2007}}</ref>
Jones designed [[Barbet Schroeder]]'s 1976 film ''[[Maîtresse]]''.
He was elected R.A. (Royal Academician) by the [[Royal Academy]] in 1986.
[[David Gilmour]], lead guitarist for [[Pink Floyd]], holds up a copy of ''Figures'' by Allen Jones during one of the interview portions of ''Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii''.
