Of paintings filled with multicolored spots to preserved animal species in tanks (The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living)the works of Damien Hirst exploit complex relations between art and beautiful, religion and science and life and death. Since emerged in the international art scene in the late 1980s, he has been challenging human experience and their beliefs with facilities, sculptures, paintings and drawings. All series of Damien Hirst, since "Spot " at "Cherry Blossoms " They evoke several psychological and perceptive dichotomies: calm and confusing, beautiful and common. How did the own Damien Hirst: "THey're eXtreme-there's something Almost Tacky About Them. Like Jackson Pollock Twisted by Love. They're Decorative But Taken from Nature. They're About Desire And How We Process The Things Around Us And What We Turn Them Into, But Also About The Insane Visual Transience Of Beauty-A Tree In Full Crazy Blossom Against A Clear Sky. It's Been So Good To Make Them, To Be Completely Lost In Color In My Studio. They're garish and messy and fragile and about me moving away from minimalism and the idea of an imaginary mechanical painter and that's so exciting for me.”
