Damien Hirst • The Civilisation Paintings, by ck1 on Aug 19, 2024 17:30:12 GMT 1, What I will say is that Hirst is an innovator and a genius and a very deep thinker. A part of his oeuvre will stand the test of time, no doubt. But he is an absolutely terrible painter: uninspired, not even mediocre in his technique and aesthetically appaling. And with these, what you're buying isn't a horrifyingly bad painting, it’s a digital printout of it. I think everyone can look at an image and give their opinion about it and have that opinion be valid. You don’t like the images - valid. Your opinion about his painting technique is not valid. It shows you have not put any effort in to understand the technique which is unique and shows the depth of thought and the immense resources only Hirst could bring to this project. it’s like saying the currency was just about dot pictures. You underestimate him because you don’t take the time to understand what he is doing. I would say that there are few people who are going to be able to bridge the immense changes happening in contemporary art. Hirst is one of them. He will do it through “digital prints” of innovative artworks.

Damien Hirst • The Civilisation Paintings, by Fluffy Pillow on Aug 20, 2024 15:34:21 GMT 1, It shows you have not put any effort in to understand the technique which is unique and shows the depth of thought and the immense resources only Hirst could bring to this project. it’s like saying the currency was just about dot pictures. You underestimate him because you don’t take the time to understand what he is doing. I'll start by saying I like the dot works and the scale of production is impressive to me - beyond the dots and my opinions of other works. BUT if I had created these or if they didn't maintain/increase in vast value, then they would in fact, just be dots on paper to you. The spin paintings are just that. Make them all individual with labels by word generators. Then when you get selected or track one down, find a way to make that descriptor work for your justifications. The formula worked so well he re-imagined and re-created it in other editions, with other names. Not the only one to do dots and not the first to amplify the meaning of their creation using lavish language and buzz words. Marketing, with a signature.
