Damien Hirst - Profile

He loves the scandal, and his intense engagement with the topic of death come back to limits of social acceptability. Damien Hirst was in 1965 in Bristol (Great Britain) was born and now lives and works in London (United Kingdom). The challenge is for him an essential part of his art, which he sees as a visual event that an excitation will cause the viewer in, whether he knows or layman. The confrontation with death, he was the opponent to life and as one of our greatest fears see us before this will cure anxiety. And so he preserves sliced animal carcasses in formaldehyde, occupies a skull with gems, "paints" images of butterfly wings ... Often it Unsensibilität and vulgarity in dealing with this issue accused. Death is but a metaphor for his life; whereas those of the inconsistency of terms is typical of him. The presence of human life is often left behind on items such as cigarette butts, clothing, medicines, etc. shows. Often his captions refer to a religious context. Hirst is an artist, a businessman and owns a large collection of contemporary art, which he has already several times in landmark exhibitions showed. © ArtLogistics
