Damien Hirst is one of the most important and provocative British artists working today. His monumental works of art have been exhibited in prestigious galleries and museums worldwide. His preoccupation with life, death, meaningful living, belonging, alienation and the passage of time – have been his artistic obsession for the past 15 years. Throughout his career, his work has challenged the boundaries between art, science, religion, the media and popular culture.” First exhibited in 1988, the “Spot” works, also known as the “Pharmaceutical Paintings” have become one of the art world’s most recognizable, classic images and they define the way much of our culture views contemporary and conceptual art.

TONY TASSET
Fabuloso, 2012
Resin and mixed media
48 x 36 x 7.5 inches
Courtesy of the artist and Kavi Gupta Chicago I Berlin
Estimated retail value: $25,000
For over three decades Tasset’s work has employed tropes of fine art, popular culture, folk and vernacular traditions to question the conditions of value and flatten hierarchies of the sacred and the profane. His multi-faceted practice ranges from his ‘spill paintings’ in which household consumer products appear to leak and pour onto panels hung like canvases, through sculpture, photography and large scale public commissions, to engage and critique the expanse of twentieth century American visual culture. He has exhibited widely, is held in notable collections, and was selected as an artist for the 2014 Whitney Biennial, New York.
