Damien Hirst | End of an Era

Never been a huge fan of Damien Hirst, but his new work entitled End of an Era is pretty rad. Gagosian Gallery hosted the opening full of The Golden Calf, which symbolized the worshipping of a false idol, and a shit load of diamonds… “Judgement Day (2009) is a thirty-foot long gold cabinet filled with close to 30,000 manufactured diamonds. A series of photorealist paintings of famous diamonds including The Golden Jubilee (2008) The Agra (2006) and The Premiere Rose (2006) are shown together here for the first time.” Check it out.



Yes these are paintings…
