Damien Hirst - The Civilisation Paintings

Klappentext The Civilisation Paintings is a striking catalogue published to accompany the eponymous exhibition at Phillips, London. Commencing on 5 August and showing until 2 September 2024, the exhibition marks the first time Damien Hirst's new series 'The Civilisation Paintings' will be on display. 'The Civilisation Paintings' are striking oil paintings that vividly capture the complexities and beauty of modern urban landscapes. Vibrant trees and flowers weave through the scenes, serving as poignant reminders of nature's resilience amidst human development. Inspired by the Impressionists, Hirst infuses the series with deep emotion, which is compellingly contrasted by his use of AI tools, showcasing his ongoing fascination with science and technology. This beautifully designed catalogue features stunning full-colour reproductions of the complete series, both in their entirety and in their detail. It includes an illuminating foreword by British curator and art historian Norman Rosenthal, as well as an in-depth interview between Damien Hirst and James Fox.
