In an unlikely locale, Damien Hirst’s career retrospective exhibit “Requiem” debuted at the Pinchuk Art Center in the Ukrainian capital of Kiev. The showcase featured many of Hirst’s stunning career works which amounted to over 100 seperate pieces from a ten year span from 1998 to 2008. Emanating largely from a private collection, the many styles of Hirst are seen including his famous formaldehyde animal installations as well as his “Spin” style paintings.

    Is film art? Music? Great directors have huge numbers of people forwarding their vision. Mozart. Beethoven. They write massive gorgeous pieces yet need highly trained musicians to bring their opus to life. Damien Hirst is a man.

    Smart and well executed. Hired Staff isn’t a problem. Technically his staff is like his tools. Just like many artists uses computer to help generate their works. To come up with the concept and Idea is the key. Damien Hirst is obviously a different breed artist.

    The artist as brand troubles me sometimes. what I mean is art loses something when you find out the artist’s hand is not truly responsible for what you see; a hired staff, the artist only coming up with the idea for a piece and not putting in the hours, but he did create these seemingly streamlined pieces himself at one point and the demand led to something else, seems rather conflicting…rambling, sorry haha
