Wrong. The most expensive work sold of a living "artist" is $80 million USD for some piece of crap by Jasper Johns. Don't ask me why. I only report the insanity, I don't have an explanation for it.

@MrChubbington once the shock value is gone, these works will be worthless. i can understand why people wanna see his works becoz they are intrigued, but snapping them up at outrageously high prices is totally insane.

@OhByGolly1 I agree,I was reading about him a while back and it said he has an office of staff, artists arn't menat to have an office, they are not ment to be businesses are they? but damien is.

So sad to see these people lose their money behind art which he did not even create himself. He is probably one of the most reviled con ARTists in the world living today.

Installation is interesting and it can really spark off the imagination, but the only question I ask is, where do we go from here? Installation was around in 1917 with, say, Marcel Duchamp's fountain, art has become much too trend orientated. I live in Britain and during my annual visits to some university degree shows I hardly ever see a painting on the wall, and almost definitely; installations make up the vast majority of the shows. But this merely my personal observation and worry.

We are in the dark ages of art. The market dictates what is art today as with the music industry. Basically the dark ages. Hopefully time will rectify why a cabinet full of empty medecin boxes is sold at 6million usd, or a goats dead head surrounded by a load of flies is a masterpiece. A crappy time we live in.

Hirst is very good at what he does.

Wealthy motherfuckers want quality and craftsmanship and some nastiness, give them what they want. Damien delivers the goods.
The golden bull is a home run.
