Here is the inspiration for some of the new Empresses…

I like a few of the orange Empresses and they also reiterate how “vanilla” the red ones are.
Those Cosmos paintings look like a mess to me but I am sure they will be popular.

Prices from 100k USD for the small CO painings?

At what point is a sellout really a sellout and not simply a sellout?

Please make him stop!

too much

Damien Hirst also pushed the boundaries in terms of mass production and commercialization of art, particularly through his approach to the art market and the production of artworks. Hirst's work often involves the creation of multiple editions, and he has been involved in directly selling his art through auction houses, bypassing traditional gallery systems. This move was seen as revolutionary and challenged the conventional methods of buying and selling art.

One of the most notable examples of Hirst's approach to mass production and commercialization is his project "For the Love of God," a platinum cast of an 18th-century human skull encrusted with 8,601 flawless diamonds. This work, while unique, was part of a broader commentary on the commercialization of art and the luxury goods market. Hirst's ability to produce and sell works in large quantities, including his series of spot paintings and butterfly paintings, which were produced with the assistance of a large number of studio assistants, further highlights his approach to mass production and challenges the traditional artist's role as the sole creator of a work of art.

Hirst's ventures into direct sales, like his 2008 auction at Sotheby's titled "Beautiful Inside My Head Forever," where he sold a complete show of his work bypassing galleries, demonstrated his interest in testing the art market's dynamics and exploring what consumers would pay for. This move was seen as a direct challenge to the traditional gallery system and a statement on the commodification of contemporary art.

I feel like Hirst has a lot of confidence in his market right now.

Either that or he owes someone somewhere a lot of money.

Definitely confidence - looks like you have to apply and only once you get selected you will be told the price of the piece.
Yes, there are reference points from the last drop but this is still a weird and complicated way of doing it. 

Love my Nur Jahan. So happy to see it every morning. The light shifts, emphasizing different aspects throughout the day.

I like many in this latest Hirst release. Curious to see price point. Grateful Empresses was affordable for me!

Oh there are plenty of buyers on the Kaws drop they just aren’t here 🤣🤣

I heard 25k and that's not that much for someone who can afford to fill their wardrobe (these days).

it seems that the market for Heni editions collapsed recently.

The Empress was sold last month at Philipps for $2,540....
