B. Kvaran, Petr NedomaExhibition is organised with The Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo, Norway.Damien Hirst (born in 1965) is one of very few artists who have achieved the status of superstar in the creative world in modern times. In his creation, which includes sculpture, installation and painting done together, he is involved in the deeply symbolic and metaphysical questions of art, life, religion and science. His art has had quite an important significance for the renewal of esthetic perception. Hirst's shocking spectacle transformed that which was once considered grotesque or rejected as an expression of ?poor taste? into something sublime ? a new type of beauty. Hirst's works, which are displayed at this exhibition, follow this trend. All installations, statues and paintings offer a focused, carefully selected overview of the main formal and thematic aspects of work of Damien Hirst during the last decade.
