There is way to much to say about Damien Hirst, so i will just be talking about 2 of his most famous pieces.The First is "The Physical Impossibility Of Death In The Mind Of Someone Living". This Piece, a 14 foot long tiger shark immersed in a vitrine of formaldehyde, was the second most expensive piece of art sold by a living artist at the time. Whoa! Some people don't consider this art. I rather enjoy it. Completely unique and groundbreaking if you ask me. Brand new. Hirst has also done other likes this with cows and sheep.
The second piece i am showcasing is "For The Love Of God". A life size human skull recreated in platinum covered in 8,601 diamonds totalling in at 1,106.18 carats. A girl's best friend? Strangely though it does have real human teeth. I need not say anymore about it and its beauty, except that it sold for $100 million dollars.
That's it on Damien Hirst. Google him! You can see more work from this modern day genius of the art world.
