OP Goedenavond Aramis. I hope it will not make you drop out forever.
I guess, it is not so much the fact that it is hideous, but somehow the fact that it is hiding the beauty of the bare skull,
if ye know what I mean. ( I know it's casted in platina )To complete my full and open opinion, it's no more than a shallow thin little idea realized at very high costs.
Quote:Mr. Hirst's recipe was a love-it-or-hate-it cocktail of death, celebrity, sex and technology, heavily spiked with comic self-promotion. The work was at heart about money, or about the love affair between art and money, Warhol's juicy subject. It openly trumpeted its own costly materialism and cheap thrills, in keeping with a certain upbeat and winking strain of pop culture (love the past tense in this)
Tastes differ for sure but ... Oh Art, where is.. ?article
