Pickled Damien Hirst


I love modern art! Kandinsky, Rothko, Mondrian, Picasso, Chagall, et al. They are towering artistic geniuses of the modern era. They produced profoundly beautiful, inspirational paintings, for us all to love and cherish for ever. Alas, the same cannot be said for Damien Hirst's dead animals, hacked to pieces and floating in vats of formaldehyde. It's a cheap confidence trick at our expense. We only have ourselves to blame, for allowing our standards to be so shamelessly compromised.
