Damien Hirst โข Pharmacy Wallpaper, by Poppy Sunshine on Nov 5, 2009 21:25:42 GMT 1, To get this into perspective, this is just a roll of wallpaper, which Hirst has never seen or touched, and in that case is worth no more than the cost of any other wallpaper. Framing a section of wallpaper is ok if you like it, but its still a piece of wallpaper...
I'm not so sure Hirst has actually seen or touched any of the work he's put out in the last few years has he?
Except for those awful attempts at actual painting he got slagged off for in the press a couple of weeks back ;D

Damien Hirst โข Pharmacy Wallpaper, by snausages on Nov 5, 2009 21:31:04 GMT 1, This is also the wallpaper that Hirst got sued for by the drug companies for using brand names on. Consequently this wallpaper was never released and an alternative was printed and released using the names of the apostles. The only rolls of this available are back door ones from the printers that produced it and are not sanctioned by Hirst and are therefore worth nothing (or at least no more that any other s**t wallpaper).
Hmmm, I always thought this original wallpaper was much more desirable than the officially sanctioned mass produced one with biblical names. This is the stuff they had installed in the restaurant of the same name correct? I believe that's why there are still pieces and roles of this around.

Damien Hirst โข Pharmacy Wallpaper, by Poppy Sunshine on Nov 5, 2009 21:44:18 GMT 1, There seems to be less of the biblical stuff around than the other so that might be the one to have.
I think other criteria were selling it at ยฃ1000 a roll so that's hardly surprising.

Damien Hirst โข Pharmacy Wallpaper, by graffoto on Nov 6, 2009 15:03:20 GMT 1, I bought 1 repetition of the butterfly patterned wallpaper a while back. Looks very nice framed up and hanging. I know it wouldn't appeal to the art snobs out there, but my old dear loves it!
Any one interested in one of these (Butterfly repeats drop me a PM) I did a whole wall in the Butterfly edition - there only 1000 rolls apparently. ;D looks smart - bit mental but smart
