The Art: Damien Hirst – Retrospective

Famed and respected artist, Damien Hirst, hold his first Retrospective showing this year at London’s Tate Modern.

The current exhibition will include iconic sculptures from his Natural History series, including ’The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living’ 1991, In which he suspended a shark in formaldehyde, a personal favorite of mine.

Around 11 or 12 I attended ‘Sensation‘ a exhibition for young artists held at thr RCA featuring works owned by Charles Saatchi, which included Hirst ‘Shark’ The image always stayed with me. After never really appreciating the impact of the work the Tate’s survey of Hirst is a great opportunity which I would recommend to all.
