About the Item

An original signed offset-lithograph exhibition poster on heavy poster paper after English artist Damien Hirst (1965-) titled "Superstition", 2007. Hand marker signed by Hirst lower left. The estimated edition size of this poster is 300, though just some were signed by Hirst at the event. Produced in conjunction with "Damien Hirst: Superstition" his special exhibition both at Gagosian Gallery, Davies Street in London and at Gagosian Gallery in Beverly Hills, California. In the exhibited works, Hirst expands on the iconic motif of the butterfly as a symbol of the beauty and inherent fragility of life, reaching new heights of complexity, refined detail and radiance. Sheet size: 39" x 26". In excellent condition. Damien Hirst, in full Damien Steven Hirst (born June 7, 1965, Bristol, Eng.) British assemblagist, painter, and conceptual artist whose deliberately provocative art addresses vanitas and beauty, death and rebirth, and medicine, technology, and mortality. Considered an enfant terrible of the 1990s art world, Hirst presented dead animals in formaldehyde as art. Like the French artist Marcel Duchamp, Hirst employed ready-made objects to shocking effect, and in the process he questioned the very nature of art. In 1995 he won Tate Britain’s Turner Prize, Great Britain’s premier award for contemporary art. Hirst grew up in Leeds and moved to London in the early 1980s. He began his artistic life as a painter and assemblagist. From 1986 to 1989 he attended Goldsmiths College in London, and during this time he curated an influential student show, “Freeze,” which was attended by the British advertising mogul and art collector Charles Saatchi. The exhibition showcased the work of a group of Hirst’s classmates who later became known as the successful Young British Artists (YBAs) of the 1990s. Hirst’s reputation as both an artist and a provocateur quickly soared. His displays of animals in formaldehyde and his installations complete with live maggots and butterflies were seen as reflections on mortality and the human unwillingness to confront it. Most of his works were given elaborate titles that underscored his general preoccupation with mortality. Hirst’s later work includes paintings made by spin machines, enlarged ashtrays filled with cigarette butts, monumental anatomical models of the human torso, medicine cabinets filled with pharmaceuticals, other curiosity cabinets filled with found objects, and a diamond-studded platinum-cast human skull entitled For the Love of God, probably the most expensive work of art ever made. His references to other artistic movements and artists are many. The common format of massive vitrines, for example, relies on the precedent of minimalism, while his use of found materials and assistants in making works links him to other artists of the era, such as the American Jeff Koons, who purposefully demystified the role of the artist’s hand. In addition to making art, Hirst wrote books, designed restaurants, collaborated on pop music projects, and experimented with film.
