Summary
Damien Hirst is a famous and ambiguous art personality who won in 1995 the Turner Prize, the most prestigious contemporary art prize in the United Kingdom and is considered the best paid living artist. In 2006, sculptor Hirst had his first "Latin-American" exhibition at the art gallery Hilario Galguera (Mexico City): "The Death of God. Towards a Better Understanding of a Life Without God Aboard a Ship of Fools" adding "Mexican" possibilities to his recurring thematic preoccupations present in his photorealistic paintings, sculptures and installations. The present book analyses the presence of Damien Hirst in México and the consequences of the "Mexican" exhibitions in his career.
