It’s creating it’s the ability to believe in the story how is it any different from a fantasy film but that’s ok because it says it on the tin MR D.H I think your a total genius ❤

The true brilliance of Damien Hirst lies in his ability to scam people while persuading the public that he is an artistic genius.

"A portrait of the Scammer Damien Hirst" would be a more accurate title.

He’s great, he makes you aware of the bizarre value system you attribute to things of this world. He interrogates the idea of art and for that I applaud him.

People in the comments saying he's not an artist clearly have no knowledge of art history. Hirst utilizes artisans that follow his designs. That doesn't mean he is dependent on the work of others. Could he create this work without any assistants? Yes, but many artists find their creativity is limited by space and time. It is common for artists to work around this with the help of artisans, especially when completing large-scale works. Is the artist who designed the Vietnam Memorial not an artist because she didn't quarry, cut and polish the granite and carve the 50,000+ names by hand? Edit: Some artists can't even be in the same country as the work they create because of politics but their work is installed by assistants that follow the artist's specific plans and designs.
