if you think you know, you DON'T!, 2001-12-15Forget what you think you think about Damien Hirst and put aside any doubts about the integrity or value of his work - this book blew my mind and is so powerful it crackles with life.
Hirst is a great talker, is straightforward and far away from the enigmatic artist who does not want to reveal himself - he lays it all out and more. He is funny as hell , has the ability to answer his most frequent criticisms with style and passion and swears like a trooper.
Burns is the man for the job, understanding Hirst but not being 'in-jokes-matey' about it and the pictures on every page are revealing.
All in all, an amazing book everyone should read and at a great price for what it is.
Buy it for friends who dont like art.
