Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by its all about me on Mar 31, 2023 17:30:33 GMT 1, I'm in two minds about these. When I first saw them I thought, "wow! A signed Hirst on canvas! Brilliant!" Now I've calmed down a bit, I realise it's a canvas that I have created myself and has actually nothing to do with Hirst at all. But, then again, you are getting a Hirst hand-signed print on canvas.
To buy or not to buy. Decisions, decisions...

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by Grillocracy on Mar 31, 2023 18:23:49 GMT 1, So a question for everyone...
What if Heni hadn't released the generator for people to use but instead used it themself behind Oz's curtain and sold "signed 1-of-a-kind artwork on canvas" via a timed edition?
Would that change your decision to buy? You wouldn't be able to pick how yours turns out but that was the same with Currency.
Instead, I just bought one of these 80s-era spin painting kid's toys on Amazon.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by ck1 on Mar 31, 2023 18:27:38 GMT 1, I feel like the conversation is going a bit off the rails. Damien Hirst (his team) made the designs, algorithm and put together the whole project. You are literally just picking different colors as an input to the project - you are not creating the art. If shrigley allowed you to choose the color of a duck or cat on his 3K print I am sure everyone would be psyched.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by robo on Mar 31, 2023 18:39:51 GMT 1, I like generative art but to me the issue is not about authorship, but whether I like the idea of โfakeโ digital spin paintings turned into digital prints. Also whether that will look good or interesting in a few years time given how this space will develop. But canโt deny itโs a signed Hirst for 4 figures.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by Wanchope on Mar 31, 2023 18:59:57 GMT 1, What Iโm not sure of is once you have chosen your design, will it actually look exactly like it as if you refresh the image it appears different every time. Some I like and others I donโt My understanding having been on the site os that there is a random generator that will change each time you refresh, but once design and title have been chosen, it will not change. Then on checkout you will see the finished and titled design in your basket and get the opportunity its to choose dimension. I hope this helps. Cheers Mem, just wanted to make sure. All the best

If you hate all of Hirst output and previous spins then I understand your comment. To be fair, I don't think it's quite that simple. I had a play around and couldn't make it generate one that I liked. Perhaps I'm too fussy.

Potentially that is a super selling point for collectors and a massive turn in the art world. Might be wrong and probably am but hey itโs an idea.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by vvk on Mar 31, 2023 20:55:11 GMT 1, this project is purely Hirst laughing at all the people that laughed at him using "assitants". Not only will you be the assistant making he painting (which is actually a inkjet print) but you will pay for that priivlage. Fraking brilliant. This dude just keeps winning laughing all the way to more castles for his portfolio

Itโs a bit of a pain that once the basket is made you canโt click on it and see it zoomed in again Right click on the image, choose open image in new tab (or PC equivalent) then, in the URL, delete everything after .png ('width=200' on mine).
Should work. You can also right click and save the image then.
