Woodcut spots from Damien Hirst. This series require no introduction. Each and every print is an abstract representation of a biochemical compound, expressed as a spot colour from circular wood cuts.
It is tough for me to talk about Damien Hirst. On the one hand, I see a gifted and quite talented artist who produces brilliant functions. On the other, an artist-turned-factory who has become so commercialized that he would need to have to come up with all kinds of techniques to pump up performs to please the high demands for his perform.
Andy Warhol likes to say that “making cash is art, and working is art and excellent organization is the ideal art.” But I tend to have a difficulty with art developed purely to make cash. Mondrian’s early performs are brilliant and full of ideas, but the Mondrian after he has becoming the darling of his times left tiny to be desired.
These “limited edition prints” is probably the worse of this trend—making swift bucks in the art market place, every asking approximately four-thousand pounds on today’s market. I have no doubt that these performs are important to supporting the artist’s livelihood and hence makes it possible for him to be the richest living artist in Britain.
Art to me is pure magic, but in these performs I see nothing at all but a money-producing machine disguised as one thing fine but has no soul except the greed inside.

# Damien Hirst
Damien Steven Hirst (born 7 June 1965) is an English artist, entrepreneur and art collector. He is the most prominent member of the group recognized as the Young British Artists (or YBAs), who dominated the art scene in Britain for the duration of the 1990s. He is internationally renowned, and is reportedly Britain’s richest living artist, with his wealth valued at £215m in the 2010 Sunday Occasions Wealthy List. Throughout the 1990s his career was closely linked with the collector Charles Saatchi, but rising frictions came to a head in 2003 and the connection ended.
