Damien Hirst - Diamond Embedded Skull

Frankly, it's stunning.

And he did it on credit!

'The priciest work of art by a living artist, ever' !?

Personally I find Hirst's works either brilliant or absolute nonsense. This skull seems to be somewhere in between, oddly enough. I'll upvote because he made Banksy a household name in the world of contemporary art

According to Damien Hirst on the Charlie Rose show, this is owned by the artist and a syndicate that includes the folks who fronted the diamonds. There's talk of it being valued at 100 million dollars or so, with 12 million dollars worth of diamonds. Maybe that's true. This is important because this is the world we live in. I think the financing is part of the art.
