Damien Hirst is he .......................

[GhoulsToo]

(with acknowledgement to Fio) ..... shoight?

Saw these masterpieces(!?) at Sudeley Castle - call me a Philistine but I really don't get bits of sawn off doors and various hats stuck together - as for the pink monstrosity - words fail me!

(Not only that, they look totally out of place in that setting)

He's rubbish IMO. Him and that Tracey Emin whatchamacallit.

I hope you didn't pay money to see his 'masterpieces'.

I'm a philistine in general - I never know what things are meant to portray etc... I either like em or I don't. Him... Don't much. I don't have any feelings evoked, which to my mind is what art should do - evoke feelings, good or bad.

the feeling I have is - its nearly bonfire night!

expat - paid to get into Sudeley but thankfully no extra charge for Damien!

FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!

I agree.

I like the dots he "designed" on the Tate Boat though

Im not struck by his "masterpieces BUT his restaurant is blooming lovelyexpensive but a really great place to hang out with friends.

I see, so he's a multi-talented, renaissance man then?

Gimme Gordon Ramsay any day! He is a sexy, burning hunk o' love.
