Hirst Interviews

Between 2006 and 2016, two of contemporary art’s biggest names–curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and artist, entrepreneur and art collector Damien Hirst (born 1965)–met to conduct a series of conversations. The two cover a wide variety of subjects in their ten years of conversations: the various mediums, methods and themes used by the artist; the gallery system and the ever-changing global art market; artists’ books; pop art; Richard Hamilton; money, commercialism and merchandise; life, death and immortality. Blunt and unapologetic, Hirst is an ideal interview subject, and Hirst Interviews allows the artist to speak his mind in his own voice.
