Damien Hirst is a British artist based between London, Gloucestershire and Devon. Since gaining recognition as one of the Young British Artists (YBAs) in the late 1980s, Damien Hirst's art has consisted of installations, sculptures, paintings and drawings dealing with death, science, beauty and life.
Hirst is one of the most celebrated, rich and notorious British artists of the 21st century, with major retrospectives including ‘The Agony and the Ecstasy,’ at the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Naples, the show ‘For the Love of God’ at the Tate Modern, as well as over 80 solo exhibitions and 260 group shows to his name. Hirst studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths College and has pursued a risk-taking approach to making art that has resulted in numerous headlines and record-breaking prices. In 1995 Hirst received the Turner Prize with an exhibition featuring 'Mother and Child (Divided)' (1993), a set of four tanks containing the bisected and preserved halves of a cow and calf. Hirst is unafraid to explore the uncertainties of the human experience and the inevitability of death. His early photographic work 'With Dead Head' (1991) shows the young artist posing next to a corpse, smiling. This intentionally disturbing image set a precedent for the rest of Hirst’s career and encapsulates his intentions to shock and tackle taboos. Hirst's vulnerability and curiosity with the human condition inevitably shines through in his artwork, from his iconic multicoloured spots to animals preserved in tanks of formaldehyde.

What is Archival Giclée
Giclée (/ʒiːˈkleɪ/ zhee-KLAY) is a neologism, ultimately derived from the French word gicleur, coined in 1991 by printmaker Jack Duganne for fine art digital prints made using inkjet printers. The name was originally applied to fine art prints created on a modified Iris printer in a process invented in the late 1980s. It has since been used widely to mean any fine-art printing, usually archival, printed by inkjet. It is often used by artists, galleries, and print shops for their high quality printing, but is also used generically for art printing of any quality.
