Hi bloggers, I don't know so much about sculptures, but I know one
famous work of Damien Hirst, it's "For The Love Of God, 2007". I saw
it for the first time on TV, in a documentary about the business of
manipulating contemporary art work. For me, this work represents, our society
as a death system, the diamonds are the symbol of monetarism, slaves and
injustice. Or in another way, we can see this skull of diamonds as the end of
our social-political world system, it’s humanity killed by its own ambition and
its non ethical way of living. So, of course I like it because I think you can
understand it from politics, and then, it's a relevant work for any human. I
think this work is better than others because the meaning of the sculpture is
really transparent and objective making a criticism of our society. For me, the
sense of arts, aren’t to create beautiful things, art must be the sublimation
of an idea, emotion, philosophy, political tendency, reflection or something else.
Arts must change something in whoever looks for it. But of course beauty is
part of the art, in the wide meaning, I only say that it can’t be the most
important thing.
I´ve never saw this sculture before but i´m agree with you post :)
