Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by Deleted on Jul 16, 2018 17:20:41 GMT 1, Top artists to invest in right now? What do you all think - i've got my couple but I want to see what everyone else thinks. Pejac Banksy originals ...... ย If it's all about money just set up a little shop buying scrap gold from desperate people. ย
Already tried that.
Thanks for your input though, I really really appreciate it.

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by Coach on Jul 16, 2018 17:21:28 GMT 1, There is no buzz around anything Hirst does today. He's an old art fart. His print prices can go up and down. The fact that his latest releases seem to only attract quick flippers shows that many think Hirsts best days are over and long term his prints could be hard to sell to recoup the money as in art bought by people when his prices were high at auction a few years ago.
This really is just not the case.
You donโt like his work. I get that. Thatโs absolutely fine.
But there really is no need to post this sort of inaccurate misinformation.
There clearly is still a buzz around his work.
There has been quite a buzz around his latest Heni release.
If he were to put on a major show now, in London or equivalent, I believe there would be people queuing to see it.
I know quite a few people offered the Heni prints. They are not flippers as you so assertively state, but collectors.
As for whether they are a good investment, well I avoid commenting on that, as time has tought me that those that do often end up eating their words.
The sort of hyperbole in your post devalues what you say, in my opinion. A well thought out criticism of his work might get us thinking.

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by silvermyn on Jul 16, 2018 17:34:14 GMT 1, So I have a methylamine 13c Damien Hirst print, its 1/100 and under the light the diamond dust looks amazing. My dealer keeps telling me damien hirst blew his chance and now all the galleries hate him and his prices cant/wont go up, but to me I think he's right there as one of the big names of our time. Do you think the piece by hirst is worth keeping and he'll one day see prints sell in the 6 figure range like warhol or even $50k range like banksy or has he really hurt any chance at future appreciation with his antics. The reason I ask is Im moving soon and I have already been discussing with a good friend of mine to sell most of my art but I've been hesitant to sell my Hirst and want to keep it as I think it has a lot of potential esp now that gagosian picked him up again, I feel like he's gonna make smaller quantity from now on and has learned from the past. Just curious about your opinions. Banksy has passed the $100k mark too; GWB has done that and more this year. I haven't seen any handfinished signed RC's or Dumbo go to auction recently but I would imagine they would be close to that sort of money.
IMHO there are too many Hirst's out there and it is highly unlikely that you would see any meteoric rises from an edition of 100.
I'm a big fan of Vasarely's work and there are absolutely loads of his signed prints to choose from. The result of the vast output of prints has had a detrimental effect on investment values. Still, that leaves them affordable to those who want them.

So lets see who will be the first to flip one of these Hirst prints on this forum and for how much.
I reckon they will be asking 10K on here and accepting around 8K as after all, look at Harland Miller prints etc etc.

You're too busy with your own small minded opinions to see the bigger picture.

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by moron on Jul 17, 2018 21:41:20 GMT 1, I read that article Shinkaiser.
It's interesting that people on here refer to auction prices all the time regarding buying or investing in the latest drop and also have referred to high auction prices regarding Hirsts latest art vomit.
Yet the article you posted says it's nothing to do with Hirsts auction prices.
"So why do many knowledgeable observersโfrom Sarah Thornton in The Economist, in 2012, to Robin Pogrebin in theTimes, this past Februaryโthink that Hirst became a persona non grata in the art world, stripped of his relevance and power? The answer comes from Pogrebin, who explained in May that she was looking mainly at auction prices:
The auctions enable me to be privy to whatโs happening in the art marketโwhoโs buying and what certain artists are selling for. I can watch, for example, how auction prices for the once red-hot artist Damien Hirst have declined and then decide to do a story on his recent attempts at a comeback."
Basically Felix Salmon whoever he is, is saying ignore the auction prices and buy Hirst because you are so wealthy you can buy his biggest most expensive pieces and ignore fluctuating and falling auction prices.

I know Hirst made alot but did he make more than warhol? I doubt it

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by Express Post on Jul 27, 2018 4:52:56 GMT 1, Sure, the print will hit $100k. Hirst is part of art history.
However the Warhol Superman was from 35-40 years ago. By that same measure, in 35-40 years time, I will be worrying about other things like my hip replacement or sadly burying a few of my mates.

When people say Hirst made too many, are there any figures vs say what warhol made bc i see tons of warhol and I imagine he made WAY more than Hirst and I was at an auction recently where his superman print was one of 250 i believe and it got well over $100k. I know Hirst made alot but did he make more than warhol? I doubt it ย I might be wrong but I think the people who bought up Warhol prints and also pushed up the prices of Warhols at auction have been buying up Hirst prints. |

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by Chris JL on Aug 5, 2018 2:13:56 GMT 1, Hirstโs Venice show was amazing. Despite a big handful of despicable faux pas, he has shown a depth and a complexity through the years that puts him among the major artists of the last quarter of a century (just check the catalogs of his Tate retrospective to get a sense), and in Venice he showed that his time is clearly not over yet. He IS already a major figure for the XX and XXI century art. In comparison, for as much as I like his stuff (a lot!!!), Pejac is a kid that had a few good games and 3 homeruns in his junior high school league. I do hope Pejac will make a mark... but he could easily go where nobody follows him and be forgotten as not even a footnote in the art history books - where Hirst has his chapter already.
Oh wait, what am I saying! Hirst sucks, and is definitively finished, and if you do have a Valium to unload at cost, please please PM me ๐
(and no, unfortunately I donโt own any DH).

Never seen a post on this forum make so much sense. Maybe you can start by getting one of the new Hirst pieces coming out. You deserve one 
And good for pejac that he managed to get to 3K per print with such a traditional work process that leaves so little to the imagination (2018).

Damien Hirst Print As An Investment?, by tab1 on Dec 18, 2018 11:19:22 GMT 1, Lots of bullshit posts in this thread. I've said it before and I will say it again, Damien Hirst has just made the best decisions of his career: he shut his online shop and went back to doing his work without assistants. The importance of these two events cannot be overstated. Dropping assistants will make the most serious art collectors take note, provide more value to his original works and make them safer, standard investments; people will fight tooth and a nail to get a canvas if he only does a show or two a year and say only two dozen are available. Closing his online shop dramatically limited the supply of his work and erased all of the unwanted tat from his career. In terms of career management, it was a literal stroke of genius. As an investment, a highly desired spot print is solid, but you can do a lot better. I'd say you're talking at best a 10% increase per year and that will not continue in perpetuity. In art terms though, that's peanuts if you can spot the next big thing. Selling a Hirst to buy Pejac is one of the most idiotic ideas I've ever heard. Pejac is far too early on in his career to see if he'll amount to anything and may be forgotten in two years. The only thing driving his career is people's desire to make money and some two-bit rappers on Instagram. Who the hell on Earth is he to ask for over a grand for a print? NOBODY. That's the answer. If you want to seriously invest in his work do it in a couple years if he's the darling of the art world, a common name and his work is fully mature. I can't help agreeing with Mr Bob here.
Damien Hirst Blew His chance? I'm curious to know how exactly...? Blew his chance? Heโs one of the worlds richest artists. He has a bacon hanging in his tv room ๐
