November 12th 09, 18:57

14th of November see’s Jeff Koons latest exhibition, a collection of new works from the super artist. “In his newest body of work the artist draws upon the past, present and future to create pieces that are rooted in the cultural historical landscape, yet also feel fresh and innovative. These works were made with a mixture of techniques. On the one hand Koons employed “fake brush strokes” to create dots a la Roy Lichtenstein. But he also employed large and abstract gestural strokes as well.” The show premiers 3pm running through to 5pm this Saturday at Gagosian Beverly Hills.

Damien Hirst for Supreme
November 12th 09, 1:38

British artist Damien Hirst was born in 1965 in Bristol, England. During the 1990’s Hirst was known as a wild child in the art world and his work embodied both everyday realism and provocative sensationalism. Known for his ironic wit and cultural commentary, Hirst often explores the theme of mortality through a variety of mediums and techniques from installation work, to painting and sculpture.
A series utilizing preserved dead animals suspended in formaldehyde (including a shark, a sheep and a cow) catapulted Hirst to fame amidst controversy. The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living, a 14-foot tiger shark immersed in a glassed display case of formaldehyde became the iconic work of British art in the 1990s. Its sale in 2004 made Hirst the world’s second most expensive living artist after Jasper Johns.
Hirst is known for his iconic graphic Spot paintings that depict rows of randomly-colored circles. Supreme will release a series of five individually designed decks and a Box Logo tee designed by Damien Hirst featuring his Spot paintings.
Available in-store November 19th and online November 23rd. Available in Japan on November 21st.
Check out images of the decks here.
