Damien Hirst
Emerging amidst the provocative YBA movement of the late 1980s, Damien Hirst has consistently captured attention and achieved record-breaking prices. After a decade of acclaim in painting and sculpture, Hirst introduced his prints to the market, notably with his renowned limited-edition series, 'The Last Supper,' which debuted in 1999, following his Turner Prize win four years prior. Since then, his prints have increasingly solidified their presence in the contemporary art scene, becoming a staple for any serious collection.
Although Hirst's popularity is closely associated with the 1990s and 2000s, his artistic legacy continues to hold significant appeal and collectability today. While some of his prints command high figures at auction, others remain accessible and attractive to a new generation of collectors.
