Biography:
Damien Hirst is a British painter, sculptor, and designer who has become the most controversial artist of his generation in England. He attended Goldsmiths College in London where he held his first exhibition. His youthful fascination with death surfaces in most of his works, including his most famous, The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living. This piece was created by placing a dead tiger shark in glass and steel tank of preserving fluid. Hirst was awarded the Turner Prize in 1995 for his work Mother and Child Divided, consisting of four tanks containing the severed halves of a cow and its calf.
