One more please. This is an early Shepard Fairey piece titled "Obey 99" or "Obedience Problems", HPM edition of 19 purchased directly from his studio in 2006. It's a larger piece, about 42 × 28 1/2 in | 106.7 × 72.4 cm.

Any thoughts on an early piece like this?

Hi,

I wanted to ask what people thought Treadmill by Josh Keyes might be worth as I am looking to sell.

Hi there,

Hope you well,

Thanks. .)

While not referring to your piece specifically, I would describe the entire series of The Virtues as one of many recent examples pointing to the decline of Damien Hirst as a creative.



For me, this is conceptually vacuous, substance-free work. And frankly boring, which is arguably the biggest crime of all.

It epitomises art strictly as decoration — presumably bought by those who are less concerned about a piece having any real meaning to them, than about:

(a)  the fame or name-recognition of its creator; and

(b)  whether it will look good over the sofa.


If it weren't for the relatively-high price tag, such work would be scooped up by surburban housewives and grannies all across the country.

I seem to recall an old interview with Hirst from the 1990s, in which he mentioned the recurring complaint of his mother was something along the lines of, "Why don't you ever just paint something nice?"

And here we are today. With a bunch of frigging cherry blossoms.

It may have taken him two or three decades but, at long last, Hirst (the former punk) is now creating the kind of art he knows will make mum happy.

Could you elaborate on why you find these works conceptually vacuous, and substance free? I wouldn’t argue that they are vastly challenging, but I think it’s worth bearing in mind the context in which they were created, during a period when the whole world (including Hirst) was locked away. If his stories are to be believed, these were his response to the separation of lockdowns and created by him alone locked away in his studio. (I’m not naive enough to think it really was just him but hey, let’s give him a little artistic license)

Their release coincided almost perfectly with the general public’s release from lock down, so much so that it was unclear if his launch show would go ahead due to Covid. Furthermore the images seem to resonate with vast swathes of the public who maybe are craving some kind of beauty and new life against an endlessly apocalyptic news cycle. To stand infront of one of these original paintings is truly a moving experience, and their scale obviously adds to that, as in so much of Hirsts work.

The purpose of ‘art’ and ‘the artist’ is obviously up for debate, but I would argue that reflecting life and nature in a way that resonates deeply with many people would be a good one. 

So yes he’s in it for the money, but I find the story of this series compelling.
